Check Out! is a wickedly funny work of theatre about the consumer culture bonanza. Set in a supermarket, Check Out! follows the remarkable adventures of tantrum-throwing Baby who is determined to get what she wants. Filled with puppetry at its most inventive and cheeky, Baby soon meets shelf products that come to life and a mischievous toddler Speedy who helps her discover that you need more than just stuff to see you through.
Fast-paced and physical, Check Out! is a very funny and ever-so-scathing take on parent/child relationships and the market power invested in children. Designed as a cure for affluenza, Check Out! is a muzak-filled slapstick puppet tale, which will make sure that a trip to the supermarket will never be the same again.
"Their slapstick tickles the children's funny bone, making them squeal with laughter." Herald Sun
