A quirky puppetry performance for families travels to the Arts Centre Melbourne this August, all the way from Bonnie Scotland.



The Secret Life of Suitcases follows the story of Larry, a man who loves nothing more than working in his office, putting everything in order.

Larry is a sorter and tidy-uper, who likes everything to be in its right place, however, Larry's world gets turns upside down when a mysterious suitcase arrives at his door one day.



The mysterious suitcase flies Larry on an fantastical journey where he and audiences alike, discover the thrills of adventures to far away places, and relish in the joys of coming home again.

This enchanting tale, originally co-produced by the Unicorn Theatre, London, is a collaboration between Edinburgh based puppeteer, designer, illustrator and maker Ailie Cohen and playwright and director Lewis Hetherington.
