For this event, tickets will be sold as group tickets; each single group ticket accommodates 2–5 people. Recommended for ages 5+.

As part of this year’s Big Umbrella Festival, comes When the World Turns, a fantastical theater experience for children and young people with disabilities and their families. Performers from Polyglot Theatre (Australia) lead you into the heart of a wondrous landscape, inviting you to become part of a wild place of the senses where you can see, hear, touch, smell, and feel this strange, rustling, breathing world as it reveals itself. When the World Turns playfully explores our connection with each other and with the world—offering a place where humans are equal players to plants and our living Earth in a new, inclusive ecology. This immersive and participatory journey will be one you will remember: full of surprise and wonder!

After reserving tickets, you may receive a follow-up request to share more information about your group so that the artists can prepare the best experience for you.

When the World Turns, a collaboration between Polyglot Theatre (AUS) and Oily Cart (UK), was originally commissioned by Arts Centre Melbourne for arts and disability festival Alter State 2022. Polyglot Theatre's season has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body. Polyglot Theatre is also supported by the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria. For more information about the artists and children who were part of the original premiere season and creative development process, please click here.
