A Goblin’s Tale

A Goblin’s Tale was a primary school show that was travelled around Auckland primary schools for nearly 7 years. Created by Ben Crowder, Maxine Donnellan, Brett O' Gorman and Ebony Fleur Bott, this show was about fostering self-esteem in kids and giving them the tools to deal with bullying, unkindness and oppression. Using humour, music, magic, puppetry and special effects, A Goblin’s Tale captured imaginations, teaching important messages through fun storytelling.
