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 have started to appear 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 now so much of it, the inhabitants 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 little watersprite awakens.

 Sophie Nüzel’s work for children and families uses storytelling, movement and puppetry to tell an important tale of our time and how we can come together to create change. 

The show has been touring to venues across Germany and the UK as intergenerational reiteration working with 3 professional performers and a local cast. It is now touring as small scale version with just 5 professional performers.

For families with children aged 4+.
