OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD
‘EXPLORE! RESCUE! PROTECT!’ EXTENDED AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2015
The world premiere Australian Tour of OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD has
been extended and this terrific live show is coming to you.
Developed from a special new episode of the worldwide hit children’s animation series The OCTONAUTS (ABC For Kids), OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD is a live adventure musical touring Australia’s premier theatres. Our beloved animated heroes have been reimagined for the live stage and transformed into impressive life-sized characters by Life Like
Touring, Australia’s leading producer of family theatre.
Valiant polar bear Captain Barnacles and his team of undersea adventurers have won countless
tiny hearts across Australia with their mission to Explore! Rescue! Protect! the world’s marine
life. The OCTONAUTS has had huge surge in popularity since it first began airing on television
two years ago, and rates in the Top 10 most watched TV programs in Australia.
In OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD, Captain Barnacles, the daring cat Lieutenant Kwazii and Medic Peso the big-hearted penguin join forces with a host of colourful Australian reef dwellers on a mission to save the Great Barrier Reef!
Entirely created and produced in Australia, OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD! is
written and directed by Life Like Touring’s Theresa Borg, who wrote and directed acclaimed internationally touring productions Scooby-Doo Live! Musical Mysteries, which toured to Australia,
North America, Middle East and Europe, and Sesame Street Presents Elmo’s World Tour that
toured Australia and Asia.
“It is a thrilling opportunity to contribute to the action packed OCTONAUTS world and support
the Octonaut values of teamwork, cooperation and protecting the environment.” says Theresa.
When the Octonauts deploy a new undersea medical station designed to keep the reef clean
and healthy, they discover a problem that threatens the reef dwellers and their home. An outbreak of spiky and very hungry Crown of Thorns Starfish are on their way to eat the reef! It will
take all the Octonauts, their Gups, and a rag-tag crew of sea creatures to ward off the advancing starfish and save the Great Barrier Reef!
OCTONAUTS LIVE! OPERATION REEF SHIELD is a live on stage underwater spectacular full
of interactive and educational fun, special effects and a musical score.
A mix of science fiction technology and biology, the subject matter of The OCTONAUTS is said
to be reminiscent of Star Trek and Thunderbirds blended with Jacques Cousteau.
“Octonauts, to your stations! Protect the reef, every fish and every crustacean!” - Captain Barnacles.
