MORE ABOUT OUT OF THE DEEP BLUE
What is Out of the Deep Blue?
Waves wash Eko, a sentient Sea Giant, onto the shore. There he encounters little Violet. These two beings - an ancient creature, and a young girl - offer us their stories: an impactful dialogue around our earth’s climate emergency told through dance, movement and masterful puppeteering. Ideal for children and family audiences. It is a story about the power of friendships and empathy that speaks to the world at large.
There will be three performances throughout each day.
