Dive into the stories, shadows and beneath the surface!
This immersive puppet theater adventure takes the audience on a journey to encounter sea monsters and floating plastic debris. Playful and visually stunning, the performance weaves current environmental education themes into its storytelling. Issues are examined from positive perspectives, and the show reminds us of real-life instances where children and young people have done amazing things for the oceans.
