Inside a magical travelling theatre tent, discover a storyteller who shares an enchanting and timeless tale.

Cheeseboy's home planet has been reduced to a bubbling fondue. Where are his parents? How did he become marooned on Earth? Gypsies have given him a home, of sorts, but Cheeseboy is tugged this way and that by tides of strange longings and stranger powers.

This quirky, beautiful, dark and very funny theatre show will transport you to a fantastical world of loss, trickery, gypsies, discovery and, of course, cheese.

Slingsby crafts original tales of wonder for children and adults alike. This new South Australian company will captivate and intrigue.
