Railway Bob – Story of a celebrity dog + Apocalyptic Breakdown

Railway Bob

A magical show with great songs, lively theatre & beautiful puppetry telling the true story of SA’s Celebrity Dog ‘Railway Bob -He travelled on the trains of Australia ‘just like a person’. With Sold-Out Fringe shows Railway Bob brings to life a bygone age of Adelaide and Outback SA and the world’s best ever dog story (we kid you not)

·         It is the complete picture that he paints of a bygone era …superb storytelling.. Charming beyond measure. “The Clothesline”

·         Fresh, dynamic and very enjoyable. The performers reminded me of classic street artists - Isabella Bracco - Tabhu Theatre

·         A captivating show that seamlessly weaves together songs, puppetry, and stagecraft to recount the remarkable story of a canine adventurer in late 1800s South Australia.  The show's energetic pace and heartwarming story kept the audience engaged from start to finish. The puppetry was so masterful that at times, I found myself completely forgetting that Railway Bob was anything but a real, living dog. Such skilful manipulation added an extra layer of enchantment to an already captivating performance.  - Stephen Lock – Musician/Composer

·         Loved the show!! My husband loves railways and I love dogs so this show was perfect for us!!  Such a special story, beautifully crafted and delivered by talented performers.  Bob the puppet is perfectly formed and so realistic that we wanted to pat him on the head. Do not miss this show, history, entertainment and fun rolled into one! -Phyllis Livingstone

·         Just been to the Fringe to see Railway Bob - what a thoroughly enjoyable show! The performers did a fantastic job, good songs, well presented but Bob stole the show! -Julie Cavanagh Radio 5TripleZ
