Description

Find the epic in the tiny from the perspective of an acorn. Join this extraordinary journey to discover the beats and rhythms of a busy, beautiful woodland world. Uncover bizarre larger than life fungi, creaking tree roots and thrumming underworlds. Breathe explores the inner workings of trees, beautifully realised with a combination of stunning puppetry, breathtakingly detailed sets and groundbreaking live camera work. Underscored through a truly unique blend of thumping drum and bass and live ethereal folk songs. This is a 2024 Offie Award Finalist that celebrates trees. 'Unmissable... delightfully imaginative, innovative and emotionally engaging' (Everything Theatre).
