"AN INVENTIVE, JOYOUS STORY TOLD BY THREE HIGHLY TALENTED PERFORMERS" 
NEWBURY WEEKLY NEWS

On the farthest edge of a wind-battered rock there sits a small fishing town. Sometimes it feels like the town is on the edge of the world…

Join three shanty-mad fishermen as they weave a fishy tale of musical merfolk, menacing monsters and spectacularly bad town planning.

With live music, puppetry, a rapping octopus and a shifting set full of surprises – this enchanting tale is fun for all the family (5+).
