Lucky and the Flight of the Sky Puppies – Brisbane Powerhouse

Posted by Team APATA | Jun 12, 2023

is a heartwarming and comical tale that follows the adventures of a small speckled Flying Fox named Lucky, playing at Brisbane Powerhouse from July 4-6.

Using puppetry, animation, song and the exceptional talents of actors Benjin Maza, Mark Sheppard and Agnes Ahwang-Bani this touching story of family, home, dispersal and friendship is set to delight young audiences this winter school holiday.

From the creatives of Othello and My Name is Jimi and directed by the award-winning Jason Klarwein, this hilarious and touching tale is brought to life with song, puppetry and animated magic.

After falling from his tree outside the Cairns Library, Lucky finds himself lost and alone. However, with help from some eccentric locals including a Pelican on Parole, an Italian Puppy called Pepe, a narcissistic Cassowary called Chad, and a Homeless Bin Chicken… sorry… Ibis, Lucky sets out to find his way home.
