Fascinating stories as unique as every one of us.

The world is a spectacular kaleidoscope of people with fascinating stories as unique as every one of us. One of a Kind is created around the true stories performed by the people who lived them; a talented, diverse group of extraordinary emerging theatre artists. 

The storytellers share their one-of-a-kind childhood tales filled with truth, cultural perspective, family languages, challenge, laughter and adventure. Using physical theatre, puppetry, music, movement and more, they offer an extraordinary exploration of the universal expression of storytelling. Children will recognize themselves and be inspired to share their own stories. Watch the video below.

Rave Reviews

We took our 8‑year-old daughter and her friend to One of a Kind and we all loved every second. We were blown away by the calibre of acting, singing and musical accompaniment but most of all we were touched to the core by how perfectly and authentically each member of the cast represented themes of multiculturalism, diversity, neurodivergence, family, school life and so much more.
