I, Bunyip

The Arts Centre Gold Coast Children's Series proudly sponsored by McDonald's Gold Coast presents 
I, Bunyip 
by Erth Visual & Physical Inc.  

Do you know what a Bunyip is? What about a Yawk Yawk or the other fascinating creatures that live in Australia? Would you like to meet them? Developed in consultation with five different Aboriginal communities I, Bunyip portrays the mystical world of creatures from our Indigenous folklore.

From the creators of the smash hit show Dinosaur Petting Zoo, I, Bunyip is Erth’s brand new show filled with amazing creatures just waiting to meet you! Erth takes you on a journey through the mysterious heart of the Australian landscape with their unique life-like puppets and stunning visual effects. You will meet a host of charming creatures like Nyols, Yawk Yawks and Turongs. You will have the chance to experience freshwater mermaids and mischievous tree-dwelling creatures.

These stories are part of people’s lives, the fabric of their communities and identity. We are privileged to have learnt and been given permission to share these special stories.
