Dare to Sea, a magical journey for children and adults which brings together dancers, circus performers and visual artists, comes to Lighthouse, Poole’s Centre for the Arts, during half-term week tomorrow and Wednesday.

A Franco-British collaboration, Lighthouse commissioned Peutêtre Theatre from the UK and France’s La Manoeuvre to create the piece, which features an underwater world conjured through handmade animated projections.

Waves are created through an original score and objects such as juggling clubs become fish darting through the water.

On a beach at sunset, a fisherman and a woman are bewitched by a siren and dive headlong into the folds of the waves.

They discover a new world teeming with wild fish, juggling mermaids and dark creatures in the abyss.

This magical and moving adventure into the depth of the ocean is ideal for families with children aged four and upwards.
