Part of the Sydney Festival

Maas theater en dans | NETHERLANDS

BullyBully is a hilarious musical for ages 3+ told in the style of West Side Story, with many songs, funny quarrels, a bit of bickering and (eventually) a happy ending. 

This joyous show follows two childish grown-ups – lords of their own pink and green kingdoms – on a squabble odyssey. Who can shout the longest? What kind of hissy fit gets your toy back? I’m the king of the castle, so no-one tells me how to run things.

It’s created by René Geerlings, who has kept thousands of young children – and their grown-ups – on the edge of their seats. Netherlands company Maas theater en dans brings us this award-winning, joyous musical in its Australian premiere season, in association with Sydney Opera House. 

★★★★ "A pissing match of the highest calibre."
