Feathers is a lonesome ferret looking for his flock.

Feathery-tailed and frustrated, Feathers embarks on a quest for belonging that will take him to every corner of the country. Will the laid-back pink cockatoos welcome him? Or perhaps the charismatic lyrebird is his true kin?

Feathers is trailed by Duck, a scrawny, flightless youngster who he would rather be rid of. But when finding his destiny threatens Duck, Feathers must decide who his true flock is.

Brought to life by Tasmania’s beloved puppet company Terrapin (Scaredy Cat, The Paper Escaper, The Riddle of Washpool Gully) and written by award-winning playwright Dan Giovannoni, Feathers is a heartwarming adventure perfect for family audiences, celebrating the power of friendship and finding your flock.

There will be a Relaxed Performance of Feathers on Fri 3 October at 2pm.
