About the show
Here Comes Gudong is an interactive children's show performed by Roarrrr Theatre at Amphitheatre on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. When a thunderous Gudong rattles the jungle, Explorer Monkey and her quirky crew set out to crack the code — is it an ancient cry, trolls' burps or clock factories exploding? The show weaves east Asian folklore with western fables through puppetry and live-camera wizardry in a sensory symphony. Families become myth-busters as the show invites children to sleuth, solve and soar. Suitable for ages 3 and over, running 45 minutes.
Why see this show?
A joyful and inventive family show that mixes puppetry, live camera magic and folklore from east and west in a genuinely interactive adventure. Perfect for curious young audiences who want to do more than just watch.
