Journey Under The Sea Through 3 Timeless Tales

Dive into a magical underwater adventure with three enchanting tales from Japan and China! 

After delighting audiences in June 2025, this production is back by popular demand — now with even bigger, brighter, and more colourful fish swimming across the stage. Told in both English and French, the stories come to life through playful puppets, mesmerizing projections, and imaginative props that will capture the attention of children and adults alike. The lively script keeps the action flowing in both languages, making it easy for everyone to follow the journey — no matter which language you speak

Don't miss the catch of the day !*

• THE LITTLE CRAB draws on the Japanese art of kamishibai, or storytelling with pictures. There is a lot of vocal audience interaction throughout, as the little crab learns to act responsibly and make new friends.
  

• URASHIMA TARO is one of the most popular folktales in Japan. It involves a journey on a turtle’s back, a deep dive to a sunken Palace where a filial fisherman meets an enchanting Princess. The telling is inspired by the Japanese style of bunraku puppetry, in a highly theatrical sequence featuring over two dozen fish and sea creatures! 

• How to become a dragon is a comical Chinese tale, in which a small creature with a big dream manages to overcome an intimidating obstacle in order to achieve her goal! 

The production features 25 sea creatures (and two dragons!) animated by Roger, Justine and a team of three animators, as well as musicians from Our Music Studio who provide live music and sound effects throughout the show.

* No sea creatures will be harmed during the staging of this performance!
