Dr Madazpantz was a scientist of dubious sanity who spent his life traveling the world collecting specimens of every type of bug and small animal he could find for his collection. Sadly, the good doctor has passed on, but you can contribute to his collection by creating a critter as yet unseen by the human eye. These critters can be donated to the collection or can be taken home to start a collection of your own.

The Cabinet of Dr Madazpantz is a drop-in playful engagement piece by Pop Up Playground, designed by Sayraphim Lothian.

The Cabinet of Dr Madazpantz was first presented at our indoor games festival This is a Door in 2012. Since then it has been presented at events for Theatre Network Victoria, the Freeplay Independent Games Festival, our outdoor Fresh Air games festivals at Federation Square, the Casey Kids Carnival and many other councils and organisations.
