MISTER MAKER & THE SHAPES

Get ready Mini Makers! MISTER MAKER is coming back with his brilliant, fun and interactive live show, and we have tickets for every State to giveaway!

The show is packed full of arty adventures and there’ll be a big ‘make’ for everyone to take part in, super songs to join in with, a fabulous supporting cast and of course we can’t forget The Shapes!

We had a chat with Phil Gallagher (aka Mister Maker) in the lead up to his Australian tour.

Thank you so much for chatting with Kidding Around Australia, Phil / Mister Maker! Great to chat with you! Thank you.

Can you tell us a bit about the Mister Maker and the Shapes Live on Stage! tour? We are so proud to be bringing our show back to Australia – it is a big, bright, bold and happy live show, celebrating creativity and fun! We have new makes for you – the production has art at its heart but also includes a lot of the things that make live theatre exciting – singing, dancing, audience interaction…and The Shapes!!! I hope everyone that comes to see the show has a wonderful time (and is surprised by my dance moves!).

Mini Reporter, Alegría would like to know:

What you are making on your show? Is it a bird, or something paint-ish or something that will pop up? Mini Makers and grown-ups will be asked to join us on stage to get arty and play games…plus there is a big make that everyone in the audience can help Mister Maker with. 

Do the Doodle Draws sometimes run out of craft stuff? Not yet – let’s hope that doesn’t happen in the middle of the live show!!!

Mister Maker, what is your middle name? I don’t have one – First name Mister, second name Maker! 

Are you going to make videos of Mister Maker when you are in Australia? Not this time…we are here for our biggest live show yet…and The Shapes are ready to dance!

You and the Shapes travel around the world a lot, what do you do when you are not making something? I am away from home a lot, so seeing my family is important to me. I go walking with my Dad…or have a cup of tea with Mum! I love watching football and cricket but don’t get much time to do it these days. My local soccer team from the UK is Gillingham (in English League One) and I try to watch as many games as I can, home and away.

What are you looking forward to most whilst touring Australia? Amazing people, amazing food, amazing places to visit…and very loud audiences!

Do you have any tips for travelling? Drink plenty of water and have lots of 80s classics on your music player.

Do you have any special causes that you support? I support lots of wonderful charities & community events back in the UK – please give a shout out to my local Hospital Radio Medway – based where I was born, in Gillingham, Kent. 

Thank you so much for your time, Best wishes & love to all, Phil
