Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, 2015

In 2015 Pelican took on their most ambitious project yet, the Australian premiere of the non-professional production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Written by Ian Fleming, the musical is a theatrical feast of dancing, singing, imagination and frivolity.

A genuine 1923 Model T Ford was restored for the role of Chitty. She flew across the stage. The show opened to strong reviews and a successful season.

Music and lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman, by special arrangement with Sony/ATV Publishing. Adapted for the stage by Jeremy Sams, based on the MGM motion picture. Licensed script adapted by Ray Roderick, by arrangement with Hal Leonard Australia Pty Ltd, exclusive agent for Music Theatre International (NY).

Reviews

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a fantastically imaginative show with extremely high production values and an outstanding cast. It is sure to please young and old alike. Don’t miss it.

Lindy Edwards, Adelaide Theatre Guide

There is just so much to like about this production and, even if you don't have children to take, get yourselves some tickets anyway. There were plenty of adults in the audience on the night that I attended, all having a great time.

Barry Lenny, Broadwayworld.com

When non-professional children’s theatre company Pelican Productions bravely clutched up the amateur rights to perform Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, their reputation would either sink or swim, or in this case, flop or fly. Pelican’s production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang soars. It is FANTASMAGORICAL!!!
