The Bugalugs Bum Thief

The Buglalugs Bum ThiefThe Bugalugs Bum Thief tells the hilarious tale of the town of Bugalugs, where the residents wake up one morning to find their buttocks missing! Skeeta Anderson, along with his best mates Billy Marbles and Mick Misery, sets out to find the culprit. After much mayhem and madness, Skeeta finally unravels the mystery and Bugalugs returns to normal… well, almost. Everyone has claimed the wrong bum! Join Skeeta and his friends in this ripper adventure that will have you singing along to the catchy tunes and laughing your own bum off! Perfect for children aged 4-10 and families.

Fantastic! The children loved it. They have not stopped talking about it or singing the songs. The actors were top class.”
- Teacher Benalla West P.S Victoria


The Bugalugs Bum Thief plays for three days at the Civic Theatre from 25 June. Performances include the family friendly opening night time of 6.30pm and then two shows daily.
