In what's being called "the biggest year in its history" the Terrapin Puppet Theatre from Australia will embark on a world tour that will bring their brilliant performance, BOATS, to the U.S., including a one-night performance at the Kenan Center's Taylor Theater in Lockport on April 29 at 7:00 p.m.
“How exciting is it” said Artistic Director Frank Newman “that Terrapin’s ground-breaking digital puppetry is now finding audiences all over Australia and the globe. It’s a great testament to all the artists that have helped us create these brilliant shows. We’re thrilled to represent Tasmania on the national and world stage, and we’re thrilled to bring three new shows to local audiences in 2011”.
BOATS is a story about a man called Jof, told by his friend Nic. The two of them are life-long friends and sailors--two mariners fleeing their past and embracing adventure. But it is much more! BOATS is a performance in which the magic is created in front of you!
