Presented by Play! Kids Festival at The Pavilion

Something has gone missing and is nowhere to be found. Mrs Mavis Hooley has been looking everywhere. Every day a new thing seems to disappear. Mavis calls in a Detective to investigate. In the dead of night, and the Detective indeed finds something peculiar….and the children’s role is to help him solve the case!

As well as unravelling a mystery, kids will learn about the unique habits of an extraordinary Australian animal, the Satin Bowerbird, and their fascination for the colour blue. It is a fun frolicking mix of Detective Noir, slapstick, combined with learning about this intriguing creature and featuring Banraku puppetry, based on the traditional Japanese puppet form.
