“Everything about this show was absolutely stunning. We loved the different types of performances and loved going through a journey where we had to move chairs. Each time the children in the show were perfect and we absolutely loved the Mermaid in the tank. Never seen anything like it. It was amazing.”
“The audience was taken on a. Journey and were guided to move to 3 different stages, as opposed to the stage being restaged during the show. It was truly a journey and a unique one”
“Mythical Creatures, performed as part of Brisbane’s Anywhere Festival, was an absolutely captivating experience that transported the audience into a magical world filled with wonder, imagination, and extraordinary talent. From beginning to end, the production took the audience on a journey through different spaces, with each performance seamlessly flowing into the next and creating an immersive storytelling experience.
Every member of the cast was incredibly talented, and their passion and dedication shone through in every act. I loved how the show didn’t simply present mythical creatures in a traditional way, but instead offered unique and creative interpretations of each one, bringing them to life through movement, performance, and artistry.
The variety of performances kept the audience constantly engaged. The aerial acts were breathtaking and graceful, the comedy added moments of laughter and lightness, and the fire performances brought excitement and intensity to the show. The acrobatics were both powerful and mesmerising, showcasing the incredible skill of the performers. One of the most magical moments was the ending with the mermaids, which felt both enchanting and unforgettable, leaving the audience completely immersed in the fantasy world the show had created.
The way the producer brought all of these elements together was truly remarkable. The vision, creativity, and attention to detail behind the production were evident throughout the entire performance. Mythical Creatures was not just a show, but an experience that celebrated storytelling, imagination, and the incredible talent of everyone involved.”
“Immersive creative and spectacular to watch and escape everyday tuesday night norms!”
“Amazing costumes, loved the fire acrobatics and aerial acrobatics. Great audience involvement.”
“A range of magical things and jaw dropping acts that you don’t get to see anywhere else.”
“This show was exactly what I feel anywhere fest was all about. It gave local talent an opportunity to showcase their skills in a convenient, accessible location and environment. Well done!”
“The creativity and innovation of an immersive audience experience”
“Creativity of the cast, sets and costumes were fabulous”
