Bring your family to TPAC and delight in the Saturday, antics of one of Australia's iconic animals. MARCH 7 11:00 a.m. When Mothball, the naughtiest wombat in Australia, gets bored with her daily routine, she goes in search of shelter and food, creating TPAC’s Polk chaos in the lives of the humans around her. Doormats, trashcans and Theater washing lines are no match for this mischievous marsupial. Between a packed schedule of scratching, sleeping and eating, Mothball discovers that with a bit of persistence humans are quite easily trained! $10 General Admission All proceeds benefi t WIRES (Wildlife Information, Rescue, and Education Service Inc.), Australia’s largest wildlife rescue organization, currently helping sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife in fi re areas.
