| Description |
The story was broadly based on Captain James Cook's voyage to the South Seas with botantist Joseph Banks on the H.M.S. Endeavour in 1770. There were 127 life sized puppets in all. It was Edmiston's first production under the umbrella of his own company, Theatrestrings. The critics raved about the production. Frances Evers in The Australian stated, 'The most exquisite production imaginable', while Romola Constantino in the Sydney Morning Herald recorded, 'everything that could be recorded for a fantasy entertainment'. The production toured Queensland and New South Wales, and played Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. |
