Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Hot Mess Show
A family holiday. A tiny beach house. Scorching heat. And the secret behind Gramma’s mouthwatering meatballs. Greg Heffley is back – and trouble is brewing – in this special performance by Jeff Kinney.
Jeff Kinney is the famed creator of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, a global phenomenon that has delighted children (and their grown-ups) for nearly two decades.
In this Melbourne-exclusive event, Kinney lifts the curtain to reveal the 19th book in his blockbuster series: Hot Mess. Greg Heffley is back for another sidesplittingly relatable adventure, this time on a mission to discover the secret ingredients behind his Gramma’s famous meatballs. Will he crack the code? Or will he cook up a recipe for disaster?
Join in on the mishaps during this interactive show with one of the world’s most engaging children’s entertainers.
