Out of the Deep Blue
Out of the Deep Blue is a mid-scale outdoor performance featuring a 13-foot Sea Giant Puppet and a contemporary 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, a sea giant who rises from the deep ocean and encounters, on the shore, a little girl called Violet.The show is presented in 2 parts: a 25-minute promenade of the giant puppet interacting with its environment and the audience and a 25-minute dance theatre duet as a static performance.
The choreography is a larger-than-life ‘pas de deux’ using dance theatre and movement as storytelling tools and is set to a mesmerising musical soundscape.
‘Out of the Deep Blue’ exists as a two-part performance; one 20-minute long promenade of the giant puppet interacting with its environment and the audience and one 25-minute dance theatre duet located at a set performance space.
