New Play for Children
 Don't miss your chance to catch a performance of the wonderful new play for children, Spirits in Bare Feet at this year's Breez Finance Children's Festival.
The story follows Olivia, a plucky ten-year-old, on a journey of discovery through the Darling Downs bushland and into Toowoomba's Aboriginal history.
Suitable for children from five years and up, the play features a host of wonderful creatures and characters, live didgeridoo and some great life lessons about self identity, friendship and bullying.
The season runs until 7 June in the USQ Arts Theatre.
