Happy Children’s Book Week! 📚✨

Stories are at the heart of so much of what we do at Monkey Baa.

Over the years, we’ve been so lucky to bring more than 20 much-loved children’s stories from page to stage, introducing familiar characters and worlds to audiences in new ways.

Here’s to the authors, illustrators, storytellers, teachers, librarians and young readers who keep these stories alive.

Where is the Green Sheep? has had a little rest… and is now getting ready to hit the road again! 🐑💚

Next stop is TAS, followed by VIC and NSW, before wrapping up the tour in ACT - with more adventures and plenty of fun along the way.

Can’t wait to see you soon! ✨

In May, our Artistic Director Eva and Head of Production Laura embarked on a two-week listening tour across Outback Queensland, travelling through Roma, Mitchell, Charleville, Eulo, Cunnamulla, Tambo, Blackall, Barcaldine, Longreach and Winton.

As Monkey Baa prepares to bring Where is the Green Sheep? to these communities in 2027, we wanted to spend time on the ground understanding the unique character of each town and meeting the people who make these communities thrive.

Across more than 2,500 kilometres, we were welcomed into council chambers, schools, early learning centres, community halls, libraries, homes and local businesses. We return home changed by the experience and eagerly look forward to returning in 2027.

💚 It was a pleasure working with the Social Enterprise Hub students and seeing their insights help shape our understanding of young audiences.

What happens when students solve real industry challenges? As part of our Social Enterprise Hub, Information Systems Capstone students partnered with Monkey Baa Theatre Company to develop AI-enhanced reporting that revealed 43% of young people reached were from regional communities, while 56.5% were from metro areas.

This collaboration delivered meaningful insights for the organisation while giving students valuable real-world experience. What challenge could we solve together next to create even greater social impact?
