A relaxed performance for young audiences which uses dance, storytelling and puppetry to explore the world of this playful mythical figure.
Amongst drifting waterweed and ancient moss-covered rocks the pond is teeming with life. Newts, snails, tiny minnows and bigger fish all go about their business as usual. However, strange things are starting to appear in the pond from above. Things that haven’t grown out of the squelchy mud or been born among the boulders. Things that clinker, clatter and clutter up the pond. There’s so much of it, the inhabitants of the pond are starting to run out of space to swim, slither and play. This underwater world is in need of change. And this is where a Watersprite awakens.

A performance for children aged 4-10 and their families using dance, puppetry and storytelling.

All shows are relaxed and introduced with embedded audio description.
