Writer: Finegan Kruckemeyer

Part picture book, part play and all wonderful fun, You and Me and the Space Between is a magical tale of an adventurous girl which unfolds live in front of your eyes as cartoonist Cathy Wilcox (SMH, The Age) draws the pictures while the story is read aloud by narrator Raelee Hill.

The Island of The Proud Circle has sprung a leak and its citizens must find a solution to stop their home disappearing forever. But it’s going to take all the ingenuity of their youngsters to ensure they don’t lose their way of life in the process.

From Terrapin Puppet Theatre, children’s playwright Finegan Kruckemeyer and director Sam Routledge, comes this funny and heroic story, brought to life in the most imaginative and inventive of ways.

"Kruckemeyer has created a universal, poignant allegory of the refugee plight which resonates with all ages, and Terrapin’s telling of it is inventive and charming” Australian Stage.

There is an Auslan interpreted performance on 20 January at 2pm.
