About
When Phoebe’s house is flooded during a storm, her parents take her to stay with her distant Uncle Linus in his rickety 200-year-old manor. With its many rooms and creaky floorboards, Phoebe just wants to be back home. That is until she discovers her uncle working away in a grand laboratory! As Linus shares some spectacular science experiments, Phoebe’s imagination takes over. Together, they weave the experiments into a magnificent story that uncovers what it means to be family.
I Wonder premiered at the Don Pyatt Hall and enjoyed a sold out season of 14 performances, after a short school tour season. The show contained science experiments that were performed live onstage.
I Wonder was co-produced with Silly Science with Simon.
Reviews
"The whole piece was well devised and well presented. It’s another imaginative example of the creative work of [The Flying Elephant Company and Silly Science with Simon] and is well worth seeing."
