A Concise Compendium of Wonder

A triptych. Three timely tales. One epic journey.

Step inside The Wandering Hall of Possibility to discover a trio of imaginative worlds, each containing a timely and timeless tale. Three new stories, inspired by classic fairytales, intertwine to form an unforgettable triptych.

> The Childhood of the World

> The Giant's Garden

> The Tree of Light

Experience each story individually or immerse yourself in an epic journey through the complete collection — all bound in one evolving wooden building that continually reveals new surprises.

Using Slingsby’s internationally renowned theatre techniques — shadow, light-play, miniatures, and original music — this magical theatre experience will transport you through time and space on a voyage that explores humanity’s shifting relationship with nature.

Don’t miss Slingsby’s final Adelaide season.

“If more theatre were like this, the world would be a magical place indeed.” - Australian Stage

To enhance your triptych experience, self-guided extension activities — inspired by each production — are available between performances. These activities encourage you to engage your imagination and senses more deeply as you pause and reflect, exploring connections between the stories and the living landscape of the Adelaide Botanic Garden.
