Following last summer’s production of Dream Sequence, The Dot Collective return this summer with their brand new production Catch of the Day. We’re going to the seaside! A place where community unites the locals and those down for a jolly day in the sun. One local, a fisherman, has some fresh lobsters to sell, little does he know that these are not any lobsters, these are Lobster Quadrille Lobsters, who are ready to dance back to the sea.

Inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and performed by professional aerial actors (Glastonbury/The Royal Opera House) it’s a story of wonder and nonsense laced with lethal wit, of games, riddles and conundrums, of questions with no right answers, but above all of magic and adventure in which you could be the highest bidder on the lobsters! Stay and Play! – there will be an opportunity post show for the audience to have a go sitting and swinging on the aerial silks. 

The Dot Collective’s adaptation is for all ages and abilities and has been developed to be accessible to all, including those living with dementia and PMLD.  Bring a picnic blanket or camping chair to sit on* and you are welcome to bring a picnic too!  Our licenced cafe will also be open for drinks and snacks on the day.  Suitable for everyone aged 4+

*For those unable to sit on a blanket or without a camping chair we’ll have a few chairs on hand – these will be supplied on a first come first served basis so please arrive early if you’d like to use one.

The show must go on….
We’ll be keeping our eye on the weather – the show will continue unless there is extreme weather (high winds or thunder/lightening).

Dogs
We welcome assistance dogs and well behaved dogs which must be kept on a lead throughout the performance.
