Underwater, a show for babies and their grown-ups comes to Theatre Royal Plymouth

Underwater: A dance theatre show for babies and their grown-ups – coming to TRP

Following its sold-out premiere at Watford Palace Theatre in February, Underwater will embark on a national tour in 2022 and comes to Theatre Royal Plymouth from 30–31 May.Underwater is a new dance theatre show created by mothers and artists, Xenia Aidonopoulou and Georgia Tegou.

Seated on ‘family islands’, babies and their grown-ups are taken on a magical journey into the deep blue sea. The show vividly brings to life the journey of a ballerina as she wakes from a dreamy sleep and finds herself in the ocean, a comforting world of blue lights and bubbles. As she explores her gorgeous new home, she meets an octopus – and the pair quickly form a loving friendship beneath the waves, dancing a duet to a twinkling soundtrack that features some familiar melodies.

This multi-sensory show is sure to engage and stimulate your baby’s imagination – and there is plenty for adults to enjoy too!

A series of four online workshops for babies and grown-ups will accompany the performance. 

For many families, a baby’s first show is a precious experience, Underwater is created with care and consideration and offers a magical memory making and bonding time for families.
