About
A heartwarming, immersive theatre experience that celebrates the bond between family, culture and food.
Straight from sell-out seasons in Melbourne, MaaMaa and Nonna’s Kitchen is a multilingual interactive performance and baking workshop for children aged 2 to 4 and their carers. Step into the welcoming kitchen of two grandmothers—MaaMaa (Chinese grandmother) and Nonna (Italian grandmother).
In this playful performance, little cooks will put on their aprons, roll up their sleeves and dive into the joyful process of making dough to create mantao (Chinese steamed buns) and focaccia (Italian flatbread) from scratch, all under the guidance of MaaMaa and Nonna. The performance culminates in a shared feast where everyone can take pride in their culinary creations.
MaaMaa and Nonna’s Kitchen is filled with the warmth of family traditions, blending stories, songs and culinary expertise into a messy, yet magical experience.
