Josephine Wants To Dance | 23rd May 2025 | Esperance

Found in: News

Inspired by the beloved picture book by Jackie French and Bruce Whatley
Adapted for the stage by Eva Di Cesare, Sandie Eldridge & Tim McGarry

Get ready for a toe-tapping, tutu-twirling adventure packed with laughs, heart, and one determined kangaroo!

Meet Josephine—a spirited kangaroo with a passion for dance. While her brother insists kangaroos are made for hopping, Josephine dreams of pirouettes and pliés. She practices day and night in the dusty town of Shaggy Gully, longing for a chance to shine.

When a ballet company rolls into town, fate steps in. With the lead ballerina out of action and the understudy sidelined, the stage is set for an unexpected star. Could Josephine leap into the spotlight and prove that even a kangaroo can dance?

With a playful mix of ballet, hip-hop, and humor, Josephine Wants to Dance is a high-energy musical that celebrates chasing dreams, embracing individuality, and the magic that happens when you follow your heart.

Perfect for families and young audiences—don’t miss this delightful performance!
