THE LIVE SHOW

Space Cadet is a unique immersive headphone concert experience. The
audience sits in inflatable “space pods”, listening to the show through
individual headphone systems as Kid Koala brings the Space Cadet score to life
on a piano and several turntables. Part
music, part storytelling, Kid Koala invites you into the world of the Space
Cadet graphic novel in a show suitable for all ages.

THE GALLERY

Prior to the Space Cadet concert, come explore the Space Cadet Gallery.
It’s fully equipped with Space Plant Sculpture installations, an interactive
Music Spaceship Console, a Space Cadet Soundtrack Cassette Jukebox, and
original etchboards from the Space Cadet book. You can even decorate your own
Gingerbread Space Cookies. Gallery exhibit will take place in the venue prior
to the concert.

THE BOOK and SOUNDTRACK

Space Cadet is a 132-page graphic novel drawn
entirely on etchboards. It is accompanied by a "still picture score"
of music composed and recorded by Kid Koala. This charming story of an
adventurous space cadet and her guardian robot touches on the relationship
between technology and isolation, and celebrates the idea of connectivity
through family and the cycles that build generations.
