Join Dame Edna and her alter ego Barry Humphries in a side splitting performance of storytelling definitely for the young at heart. Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd June at the Sydney Opera House. Hear the magic and wonder of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Carnival of the Animals and even the Spanish tale of Juanita.
After the broom-splitting magic of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice to begin, we’re then off to an evening of storytelling. Barry, we’re assured, will acquit himself with style and taste in the Ogden Nash verses for Carnival of the Animals.
