“I can hear someone out there. They’re singing to me.”
Whale sings his heart out into the deep blue sea… but nobody sings back. Is he the only one like him in the whole ocean?
Just when he’s about to give up, a mysterious voice echoes through the waves. Determined to find the singer, Whale embarks on an unforgettable adventure—diving through glowing coral caves, dodging wibbly jellyfish, and facing wild-eyed sea monsters! But will he ever find a friend who hears his song?
Join Hoglets Theatre for an exciting deep-sea adventure packed with huge, beautiful puppets, hilarious sea creatures, original songs, and lots of audience interaction! The Tale of the Loneliest Whale is a magical, interactive show that celebrates friendship, difference, and the beauty of being yourself.
