Check mates make all right moves at Hobsons Bay kids’ fest

Curious characters from an oversized chessboard will come to life for the Winter Kids’ Festival in Hobsons Bay.

Pictured are an overbearing Queen (Carolyn Hanna), dimwitted knight (Nick Papas) and a pawn (Penny Baron), who will feature in The Curious Game, performed by internationally renowned theatre troupe Born in a Taxi.

The show, ideal for children aged five to 12, will be held at The Substation on July 13 at 1pm and 3m. Tickets are $12 children/$15 adults. Running until July 15, the three-day festival opens with a free concert by ‘indie-kindie’ band The Mudcakes.
