Our scene is about the rollercoaster-like journey of a group of classmates who adventure to Broome in an unexpected change of events. We’re tired from a long bus ride, yet we all know we must persist in our quest to find Yari - an unknown animal. After receiving a mission involving taking an egg across the country from Yari, we get surprised by some terrifying beasts.

Jessie played by Felicity O
Hi! I’m Felicity, I'm 10 years old and I play Jessie. Even though Jessie is really bossy, clever and pretentious, I love playing her because she’s a really large role. Plus, people said I have a similar personality to her (apart from the pretentious part!). Besides the production I love acting, my favorite colour is light blue and i’m so excited for Halloween!
Morgan played by Harriet W
Hi, I'm Harriet. I'm 10 years old and I play Morgan. Morgan is sassy, annoying, a bit mean, and very egocentric! I love this role because it’s really fun to play and some of the lines I say make me laugh. It’s so much fun to rehearse and I can’t wait for the production.
Sam played by Remy M
Hi! l am Remy, l am 11 and l play Sam. l think this character represents me and l am so excited to play him because we have a lot in common like the love of AFL. Here's a little bit about me - l have a cat and a dog. My dog's name is Mouse and my cat is named Popcorn.
Alex played by Will K
Hello I’m Will, I’m 11 years old and I play the character Alex. I love most sports and play a lot too, with my favorite being footy. My character is nervous and shy until he stands up and shocks everybody. I like my character because he has quite a big role.
Evan played by Molly H
Hi, I’m Molly, I’m 11 years old and I play Evan. I ask a lot of questions and I act ‘naive’ as Evan. I love the colour light purple and I play netball. I’m like Evan because I ask a lot of questions.
Charlie played by Chloe J
Hi, I’m Chloe, I’m 11 years old and I play Charlie. Charlie is really fun to play with all of the lines I get to say. Something about me is that I have a pet dog called Rocky and I enjoy playing with my friends.
Yari played by Leo S
Greetings, I’m Leo and I’m 10 years old. I like cricket, space and Lego. I play Yari (the whale). I like to be Yari because they don’t have too many lines, so it’s simpler to learn them. My character is an important one in the play.
Linygurra 1 played by Ben B
‘Sup! I’m Ben, I’m 11 years old and I play the big bad Linygurra. I’m excited for the production, it was pretty fun practicing. I like comedy and pizza. My character is a crocodile and he and his croc gang steal the milbi egg from the students, which in the end we don’t get to eat.
Linygurra 2 played by Wyatt M
Hello! My name is Wyatt and my character is Linygurra 2. I love sports, my most favorite is AFL. My character gives back the egg, though in real life, I would DEFINITELY eat the egg, with some bacon of course!
Linygurra 3 played by Marlowe G
Hola! I’m Marlowe, I’m 10 years old and I play Linygurra 3. I’m so relieved that I’m a crocodile because being a talking student is way too basic, and talking crocodiles are super weird, but also pretty cool! Don’t worry, I don’t actually eat kids, instead I eat tacos.
Linygurra 4 played by Etta M
Hola! I’m Etta, I’m 11 years old and I play Linygurra 4. I’m excited to play Linygurra 4 because Linygurra 4 is funny, and I like crocodiles because they are scary but also very funny (and yes, bacon is the best, and if you say otherwise you are WRONG).
Student 1 played by Hunter V
Hello, I’m 11 years old and I play student 1. I love playing sports and especially soccer. My role is not the biggest role, but I still enjoy being part of the cast. My favourite part in the show is when Ben says, “you know what is better than bacon? KIDS!”
Student 2 played by Bo M
Hi! I’m Bo, I’m 10 years old and I play Student 2, I appreciate being this character because I really am a student, although I also enjoy how I don't have to say much but, am still able to speak. My favourite part is when the crocodiles come on and everybody screams.
Student 3 played by Harrison G
G’day, I’m Harrison, and I don't play such a big role. I like foods such as fried chicken and fries. I do play a few sports, my favourite is footy. I enjoy that we have a really cool scene in the production where there are talking crocodiles. My most loved line of speech is when I say, “it’s just an egg!” well, that’s my only line.
Supporting Student played by Theodore R
Bonjour! I’m Teddy, I’m ten years old and I take on the incredibly difficult role of a non-speaking student. I enjoy being a non-speaking student because despite not having a big role in the story, I am still an important part of the production. I love sushi, and I think that my character would as well.
Supporting Student played by Harriet B
Hey! I’m Harriet B, I’m 11 years old and I play a supporting character. I like playing this character because during the song ‘Ten Times as Strong’, Audrey and I run up to the centre of the stage and shout ‘Wait!’ silencing everyone. I got the opportunity to create an art piece for a background at the end. Thank you and I hope you enjoy the show!
Supporting Student played by Audrey D
Hi! I’m Audrey, I’m age 11 years old. I play a supporting character in the play. I enjoy playing this character because Harriet and I jump in shock to the front of the stage and yell “Wait!”. Reacting rather than talking is a crucial part. I have a dog which I adore very much and one of my favourite hobbies is art. I created one of the backdrops for the production.
Supporting Croc played by Samuel M
Hello, I’m Sam and I’m 10 years old. I play one of the crocodiles in the production. I like to be a non-speaking crocodile because I don’t have to remember any lines and there is no pressure. I like sports like footy and cricket and gaming. I’m excited for the production.
Gary the Croc played by Tom W
Hello, my name is Tom and I play Gary, the Crocodile. I play and love lots of sports. My charter plays a big role in making the boat. I think the production is fun and good.
Drums / Croc played by Nicholas N
Hello my name is Nick, and even though I wanted to play a bigger part I am happy with being the rock star drummer of the play. I am happy to be in Scene 4 and I really hope you like the show. BOOM!
Guitar / Croc played by Philip F
Hello! I’m Philip, I play the role of a non speaking crocodile, and I also play the guitar in the band. In the play I like to eat cheeseburgers and children! My character technically doesn’t have a name, but I’m calling him Bob the crocodile. I can’t wait to wear my croc costume on the stage!
Piano played by Madeleine G
Hi! I’m Maddie and I’m 11 years old. Although I am not a hungry, terrifying crocodile or kid, I still play quite a large role as a pianist for the epic last song of our scene. I’ve been playing the piano since I was 4 or 5 and now currently in grade 6 (in piano of course). Hope you like every bit of the production!
Staging Assistant - Jake C
Hey, I’m Jake. I didn’t want to outshine my classmates on stage so I chose to assist behind the scenes on our school production. If you see a figure in black moving props around like a ninja, it will probably be me.
