PDSW presents 'Out of the Deep Blue'
About Us
'Out of the Deep Blue' is an outdoor physical theatre performance featuring a large-scale Sea Giant Puppet operated by 5 puppeteers and a female dancer, inspired by the themes of the climate emergency and the biodiversity crisis.
This spectacle is designed specifically for family and festival audiences and tells the magical story of EKO the sea giant who rises from the deep ocean and encounters, on the shore, a little girl called Violet. Expect a larger-than-life 'pas de deux' using dance theatre and movement to tell their story, all set to a mesmerising musical soundscape.
The show has two halves – a 20-minute walk to the main performance space and then a 25-minute duet.
