The forest is waiting, with stories to share—come meet the creatures who live there!
Join Canberra Youth Theatre and Erth for a brand new roving performance of magical puppets at Enlighten 2025: The Nature of Things.
We’re joining forces once again with internationally-renowned puppeteers Erth at Enlighten Festival, where 50+ young artists from Canberra Youth Theatre will be bringing a menagerie of magical creatures to life in Glebe Park.
The Nature of Things – As the sun dips below the horizon, come meet a majestic, iridescent giant – ancient as the earth – who has made this forest home. With every step, this guardian of nature summons her friends—endangered creatures in search of a place to call home.
Enjoy a free outdoor family-friendly event featuring interactive life-sized puppet performances, sounds, and illuminations that tell the story of nature, animals, and endangered creatures.
The Nature of Things is an interactive Enlighten: Beyond experience that lights up Glebe Park for 11 unforgettable nights, Friday 28 February – Monday, 10 March 2025 at 5pm – 10pm each evening.
