Theatre of Image was founded in 1988 by Kim Carpenter. The company tells Australian and universal stories to our young people as much through visual and musical images as through words. The company has collaborated with major performing arts companies in Australia, Canada and Japan. Celebrated productions include The Happy Prince, the children’s opera; Grandma’s Shoes (with Opera Australia); Lulie the Iceberg (with Kageboushi Theatre Shadow Puppet Company); and Stella & The Moon Man (with the Australian Youth Orchestra).
