Details

A powerful and enigmatic tale from a master storyteller brought to life through muscular performance, live atmospheric soundscapes and intensely rich language. A young fisherman falls for a mermaid, but in order to join her in the depths of the sea he has to lose his immortal soul. As he tries to learn the secret ritual to free soul from body, the fisherman soon finds that his soul has something to say in the matter. The struggle between the fisherman, his soul, a jealous young witch and a troubled priest is at turns fascinating, tragic and moving. Dance adaptation of Wilde's fairy stories for adults.
