The Whale Environmental Event
The audience gathers behind a lobster net fence that surrounds the Whale environmental event. They interact with the eccentric marine biologist, Netty Northwest, who engages them with nautical repartee until the show begins.
An acrobatic diver leads the audience through the life and journeys of an ancient Leatherback Turtle and the threats and dangers it faces to survive. Come and explore the tale of sea creatures and their battle to survive in an ocean full of rubbish. The audience helps save the turtle and the whale from a deluge of plastic, leaving them feeling empowered, that everyone can make a difference.
This is just the show to consider if you have a large flat area to animate and feel like having an 18m giant inflatable whale on site for the day. As the whale inflates there will be a sense of excitement in the air as people gather to find out what is happening, where it came from and why.
Over the course of the day, the public will be invited to actually step inside the whale and watch some brilliantly animated performances. Choose from:
The children’s show, The Pirate’s Misadventure, in which a noisy fish wife will reveal the decorated seascape inside and introduce the audience to a shipwrecked pirate with a treasure tale to tell and a real live mermaid with an intriguing secret.
The animated installation, The Mariner’s Museum, in which an ancient sea salt leads visitors around a museum of deep sea wonders. Curiosities include mermaids’ purses, an arm-wrestling octopus, a skeleton with xylophone ribs and bewildering flotsam and jetsam. The audience is invited to touch and taste some of the exhibits.
Plastic Ocean The audience are greeted by a cheerful Navigator character who invites them to step inside the Whale and experience a beautiful, funny and interactive show which will highlight the impact plastic has on our environment through a series of fun learning and theatrical experiences.
The Whale is perfect as a centerpiece for all seaside, nautical or maritime-themed events.
