What makes a rainbow? Join drag superstar Hugo Grrrl for the world premiere of Hugo’s Rainbow Show: a musical, magical adventure exploring the science of the skies above.

Can you help Skyler find Ray The Sun, Misty The Cloud and Wayne The Rain? Maybe even the fabulous Archie The Rainbow?! Together our wonderful weathery friends will make the mysteries of meteorology fun, all the while proving the power of glitter, dress-ups and friendship. Expect original songs, custom storybooks and of course outrageous costumes in this novel rainbow-reading-style experience.

Hugo’s Rainbow Show is for everyone! Best for two to ten year olds and our neurodivergent whānau, but even big kids will love this wholesome, goofy and glamorous experience.

Created and performed by Hugo Grrrl.
Music: Chantal Claret & Jamie Sharp.
Illustrations: Fey Nally.
