Words Weekend 2019
Kid Normal and the Shadow Machine with Greg James and Chris Smith
Calling all members of the Heroes’ Alliance! There’s been a dramatic jailbreak at a top secret prison and the planet’s most dangerous supervillains are on the loose. Luckily Kid Normal and the Super Zeroes are on hand to chase them down, but will they find Magpie and his dastardly shadow machine in time, before they bring about the end of the Heroes’ world as we know it?
Join award-winning broadcasters and authors Greg James and Chris Smith for an action-packed Kid Normal event with musical accompaniment from the super-talented Dave Cribb (Amusical). Help create a brand-new superhero story and prepare for lots of games, singing and audience fun!
