The Whale's Tale at the National Marine Aquarium
This October Half Term, 'The Whale's Tale' will be coming to the National Marine Aquarium!
This new show is for family audiences, using puppetry, music and storytelling to spread a message of hope for our watery world. Discover more about whales, coastal communities and protecting the Ocean we all rely on. It's time to get curious, to work together to come up with solutions that work for everyone, to make our brains as big as a whale - as big as the Ocean! This show is suitable for 5 years +, and is designed to be accessible to audiences with additional needs.
The show starts at 1pm, with an optional touch tour starting at 12pm.
These shows are free to visitors of the National Marine Aquarium, but all audience members must have both:

For 'The Whale's Tale' she has gathered an experienced company, and worked with South West partners including Devon Fishermen's Mission, Take A Part Plymouth and the Ocean Recovery Project.
