Explore a universe of light in this immersive, awe-inspiring and interactive adventure for young children and their families, travelling across worlds of colour and imagination.  

Suggested for ages 4-10, Wonderverse encourages exploration, play and creativity as children meet mesmerising fireflies, explore a forest of light and contemplate the vastness of the universe.  

Created by acclaimed Australian childrens’ theatre company Patch Theatre, Wonderverse’s vibrant worlds are brought to life with engaging guides, interactive lighting designs by Geoff Cobham and epic tunes by Elisha Umuhuri from Aboriginal hip-hop sensation DEM MOB.  

Making its NSW debut at the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Lighthouse Gallery, this innovative 40-minute adventure blends theatre, visual spectacle and play for a memorable and educational experience. 

This is a high sensory experience containing lighting effects and amplified music.

“Lying on the floor between my two children, I saw my daughter completely mesmerised and smiling. Then my son turned to me and said, ‘Mum, this is awesome, thank you.' "
