Each year I look forward, as do our students, to our new adventure with Sensorium Theatre. As always, with Wonderbox, Sensorium put a lot of thought into how best to meet the needs of a diversity of students. Their recognition of how students with a range of disabilities need their needs met is to be applauded. Brilliant and professional every time, they have never let us down.

Curiosity! Choice! Celebration! What’s inside the Wonderbox?
Wonderbox invites children to roll the dice and set out along a safe, exhilarating pathway into the unknown. Inside a giant puzzle-box of illusions, kooky-carnival friends with magic in their pockets lead audiences into an immersive multi-sensory wonderland of fantastical large-scale projections, strange tiny delights and infectious live music.
Every child’s curiosity is celebrated and rewarded with wondrous surprises. The discovery is the journey. As boxes reveal boxes within boxes each child is given the opportunity to find a magical version of themselves. Inside the Wonderbox, micro-moments of whole worlds in a matchbox lead into macro universes where everyone, their face reflected in the stars of the Milky Way, is revealed as wonderful!
Wonderbox premiered at Perth Festival in 2023. The 2025 national tour was produced by Performing Lines.
