Warringah Council’s Possum Magic Festival

Warringah Council

Picture from the festival.

The Possum Magic festival was created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the publication of one of Australia’s most popular children’s books; Possum Magic. Written by Mem fox and illustrated by Julie Vivas. The aim of the Festival was twofold. On the one hand to create a free, “family friendly” festival around performances of the stage play of the book at Glen Street Theatre. The second aim was to test a new delivery model for events and festivals in the Warringah LGA which would see delivery of events drawing on the resources of a wide range of Council’s departments.
