In a house, in a tree, by the creek, not the sea. Lives a boy with a name that's quite strange. Making things out of trash, fixing things in a flash, to take them to the market to exchange.

'dirtgirl is a gumboot-wearing girl who grows awesome tomatoes, knows cloud names and drives a big orange tractor.
dirtgirl's backyard is full of friends. There's scrapboy, her best friend, who's a whiz with junk, grubby with her grub's eye view, ken the weevil, a super stunt star with a healthy fear of heights, roger the rooster and the chicks, hayman, the monosyllabic scarecrow and the greenthumbs...real kids in real gardens having unreal fun.
dirtgirlworld is a celebration of life outside.
It's a place of bizarre insects, underground tunnels, vaudevillian trained chickens and performing stunt bugs.
Funky pop songs, guitars with attitude, beats, grooves and loops all blended with a tractor, make up the infectiously cool music in dirtgirlworld.
This musicentric series explores the natural world and invites the audience to 'go get grubby' in the big world outside.
dirtgirlworld is a place where we find out that we protect what we love.
As dirtgirl says...'it's all about balance'.
Made for 4 - 7 year olds, dirtgirlworld takes this audience to a world where real and unreal hang out together.'
