NIGHT NIGHT
A story of life, death and other dimensions.
Take a peek beyond the limits of our reality with a heartwarming theatrical film, created live each night.
Highly visual and playfully cinematic, the newest creation from WA’s own The Last Great Hunt tells the tale of Pip, a downtrodden Antarctic scientist on a quest to discover the origin of life. Haunted by visions of an albino penguin, she stumbles upon a hidden plane of existence that challenges everything she thought she knew. As her world unravels, Pip must team up with a mysterious, glowing entity to reveal the threads that bind life, death and the universe.
Night Night takes you on an extraordinary adventure, blending puppets, animation, and DIY digital magic. Witness the onscreen story while experiencing the behind-the-scenes artistry as a theatrical film is created live in front of you.
We are thrilled to that Night Night will have its premiere season at Perth Festival 2025, grab your tickets below…

I love the way you continue to combine the story of human nature with care for the planet and its creatures. I feel that theme is fundamental to everything we need to think about, so am really grateful that you keep using your voices for that purpose. Thanks so much -Night Night audience member
I loved how clever the show is. It shows you how things work on the side. This would be a fantastic show for those with little English as you knew exactly what was going on. Very Clever and well executed -Night Night audience member
