The device allows him to tour solo but also engages the audience more - they love seeing their fellow students involved. John has just the right attitude with the students and is a natural storyteller, who loves Australian History.

The story itself is remarkable in many ways - for the vision and dedication of John Flynn, for giving a picture of life in the outback a century ago, for the coincidence that sparked the arrival of the first doctor for the service, for the flegling aero company that supplied a plane (qantas). 

Everyone should book this show for students in Years 3 - 9. He performs nationally. Check tour details here. Hats also offer 3 other Australian History productions - on Inland Explorers, Inventions, The People on Our Money.
