CHILDREN'S THEATRE: My Hamster is a Pirate - Brisbane Arts Theatre

Title: My Hamster is a Pirate

Presented By: Brisbane Arts Theatre

Genre: Family / Children’s Theatre / Adventure Comedy

Synopsis: Ben Jinks has a pet hamster named Stinky — but Stinky is no ordinary hamster. He can talk, he is super-intelligent, and he may just be the key to a treasure-hunting adventure. When Ben and his family head to the Gold Coast on holiday, they uncover a decades-old mystery, search for buried treasure, and discover hidden talents of their own. This action-packed comedy celebrates friendship, imagination, and the idea that big adventures can come in very small, furry packages.
