On the farthest edge of a wind-battered rock sits the town at the edge of the sea...
The boy lives with his Grandma in the old lighthouse, dreaming of going to sea, but late one night he hears a mysterious song coming from the ocean. The boy steals a boat and sets out upon the waves he gets more than he bargained for. Inspired by the refugee crisis, this new play explores the fate of one little fishing town, exposed to the mercy of sea monsters, mer-creatures and spectacularly bad town planning. Join our three be-bearded fishermen as traditional sea shanties combine with new music in a tale told through lyrical storytelling, quirky puppetry and innovative physical theatre for ages 5+. |
