Family Adventure Across The Seas With Sea Girl And Carbon Theatre This Spring
SENSORY INTERACTIVE EXPERIENCE INSPIRED BY THE SAILING ADVENTURES OF LAURA DEKKER COMES ONLINE FROM 31ST MARCH
Coming online this Spring, Sea Girl is an interactive, choose-your-own-adventure experience that takes the whole family on a journey across the world.
The experience is inspired by the extraordinary achievements of Laura Dekker, the youngest person to have solo travelled across the world in a sailing boat. She was just 14 when she set off and 16 when she completed her trip. This work celebrates her magnificent adventure and shows how the determination of one girl changed the world!
Join Sea Girl to follow an adventure story about sailing around the world. Help Ellen, Naomi and Tarzoon, the cat, decide whether to meet turtles, explore the Caribbean or follow dolphins. While targeted at children, the whole family can decide where to go and what to see. If at any point you need more time to answer the questions or make decisions, then you just press pause and play again in your own time.
This performance is accessible to disabled children and those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. Accompanying the visual experience are additional resources designed by sensory engagement practitioner Natalya Martin, that explore the show through sights, smells, sounds and textures. This show is fully captioned and aims to remove access barriers to enable disabled, neuro-divergent and D/deaf audiences to participate in the project.
The project is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, National Lottery Community Fund, Margaret Giffen Community Fund (Northamptonshire Community Foundation), MGCfutures, Stage One and Attenborough Arts Centre. Earlier development of the work was supported by artsdepot, Warts and All, Attenborough Arts Centre and Derby Theatre. It is produced by Carbon Theatre.
Carbon Theatre is also producing a new play by Leanne Davis. In a special baby-friendly event, we invite you to Play with a Play and watch our nearly-ready show.
