PROGRAMME
PERFORMANCE AREA
10:45 Dance A Sea Shanty
Get into the Festival mood and join in with a fun, dance workshop – everyone welcome.
11:20 ‘Out Of The Deep Blue’ (preceded by a promenade from Eko)
Autin Dance Theatre
In a not-too-distant future, waves wash Eko, a sentient Sea Giant, onto the shore. There he encounters vulnerable 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, but it is a story about the power of understanding that speaks to the world at large.
