This year the OUT OF THE DEEP BLUE: AUTIN DANCE THEATRE are bringing their giant puppet to the event!

OUT OF THE DEEP BLUE is an outdoor physical theatre performance featuring a 13-foot tall Puppet operated by 5 puppeteers and a female dancer. This spectacle is designed specifically for family and festival audiences and tells the magical story of Eko, asea giant who rises from the deep ocean and who encounters, on the shore, a courageous little girl called Violet.

The choreography is a larger-than-life ‘pas de deux’, which uses contemporary dance theatre and masterful puppeteering as storytelling tools, accompanied by a mesmerising soundscape.

Performances at 10:30am, 12.45pm & 3.15pm 

The piece is around our earth’s climate emergency told through dance, movement and masterful puppeteering – aimed at children and families. Performances are free, the company will perform up to 3 times during the day and includes a walkabout/roaming act through the Quedam and static performance outside Dunelm and Boswells Café.

These performances are brought by the Octagon Theatre to Yeovil's Super Saturday event.
