Mr Freezy
Created by Hamish Fletcher, Chris Kohn, Tamara Rewse and Sam Routledge
A fun-filled ice-cream odyssey
Riverside Theatres
21 & 22 June
Arena Theatre Company in collaboration with Men of Steel presents Mr Freezy as part of the Education
Season at Riverside Theatres on 21 and 22 June. With the characters created out of real food, utensils
and packaging, Mr Freezy blends incredible puppetry with extraordinary set design and original music and
takes its young audience on an exciting and messy exploration of bravery, loss and belonging.
Mr Freezy tells the wild and epic story of an ice-cream van that comes alive as everything in it transforms.
Scoopy is an ice-cream scoop who can't stand the cold or the brain freezes that come with his job and
wonders if there is anything more to life than scooping ice-cream. When his home is endangered, he is
called by Mr Freezy on a quest to distant and dangerous lands. On his travels, Scoopy encounters a world of
robo-chickens, milkshake speedway racers and Godzilla-like food processing machines.
“This is a fantastic introduction to the theatre for infants and primary school students. Mr Freezy is a fun and
imaginative tale and Riverside Theatres is pleased to have such an innovative and engaging children’s
performance as part of the Riverside Theatres Education Season” said Director of Riverside Theatres, Robert
Love.

Anarchic, messy and highly intuitive. This is a fabulous children's show. It's brilliant, silly and often hilarious
