The magical stage adaption of the beloved Australian story is back to celebrate its 40th birthday!
Grandma Poss loves making magic. She makes wombats blue and kookaburras pink. She makes dingoes smile and emus shrink. But one day when danger arrives in the form of a snake, Grandma uses her most magical spell to make Hush invisible.
Hush has many wonderful adventures, but being invisible isn't all it's cracked up to be, and Hush longs to see herself again. One problem. Grandma Poss can't find the spell to make Hush visible again.
Possum Magic takes audiences on a whimsical journey to find the food that makes Hush visible again.
