A kid is on holiday in a seaside town.
A seagull is stealing a chip.
And Poseidon is sat at a bus stop staring at the ocean.

It’s a story about being somewhere that feels new, about being scared of change, about talking, listening and helping someone find their feet in a new landscape.

It’s a story about feeling a bit lost, and about finding your way again. It’s a story about a seaside town, a retired god, and a kid.

It’s a storytelling show, with songs on a banjo, and a lot of things written on a lots of sticky notes. And it’s for everyone, for young people, for kids and their friends and families. And it’s told by our very brilliant .

We open a BRAND NEW SHOW at before heading over to . Come join, tell your pals, bring your kids.
