The Events Centre presents a Circa production.
A STELLAR MUSIC-FUELLED CIRCUS SPACE ADVENTURE PACKED WITH FLIPS AND FUN!
From the creators of the spellbinding Duck Pond, which captivated audiences in 2025, Circa returns with an out-of-this-world family spectacular.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, part time genius, full-time rat-bag, can’t finish his lullaby. The final notes of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have slipped away, so he builds a rocket and blasts into space to find them, with his best friend – a faithful circus bear – in tow.
On their adventure they tumble through galaxies where asteroids lurk and space dinosaurs roar. But there’s a catch! A galactic glitch threatens to strand them light-years from home. To chart a course back to Earth, Wolfgang learns that sometimes, to find your melody, you need a little stardust…and your best friend by your side.
Wolfgang in the Stars is a dazzling delight for all ages – bursting with truly gravity-defying acrobatics, live video projections, puppetry, music and a heartwarming message of connection.
Because imagination travels faster than light and no good story ever obeyed the laws of physics. Strap in – adventure awaits!
“Joyful, imaginative and just the right amount of ridiculous.” – Stage Whispers
