What the Critics Say

"This show has to be one of the best, if not the best, pieces of children's theatre and family theatre that I've ever seen. "

Broadway World

"Directed by the multiple-award-winning artistic director of Windmill Theatre, Rosemary Myers (Girl Asleep, The Wizard of Oz, Pinocchio), and designed by Jonathon Oxlade, this show is more than just an extended episode of Bluey; it elevates the material and invites us all to play with the Heelers."

The Guardian

"There’s no better show to inspire lifelong love of the stage in your littles"

Courier Mail

"Windmill Theatre has created something exceptional."

ArtsHub

"If you’re a fan of Bluey, this stage-show a must-watch. "

RNZ

"The stage was set with the heelers’ iconic Queenslander house perched on its iconic Queensland hill, and a host of bin chickens giving us our first taste of what would unfold as a puppetry masterclass."

The New Zealand Herald

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

Everywhere Windmill wanders we walk softly, we speak respectfully, we hold integrity, we collaborate and create while honouring the truth of reconciliation and the true history of this country.

We know that the land on which we create our work is sacred. We know there were many tribal family clans here before us and we now sit beside them. We acknowledge the tribal family clans who are known today as the Kaurna Meyunna, the first peoples of this place. We respect all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people from across this sacred land which is known today as Australia.

Written by Karl Winda Telfer, Burka – Senior Cultural and Spiritual Custodian, Mullawirra Meyunna – the Dry Forest People, Southern Country
