Deep under the forest floor, amongst the tangled roots, lies the Wood Wide Web: an underground call centre operated by mushrooms, who work their little socks off to pass messages from tree to tree day and night.
But when a glitch in the root network stops a message from getting through, can Walter, the tiniest mushroom of all, become the hero the forest needs? This rip-roaring theatre show takes audiences aged 6 – 11 on an underground quest with giant moles, splash-zone waterfalls, and a message that’s there’s strength in friendship and unity, no matter how small you are.
A work-in-progress performance by Seagull Productions as part of artsdepot’s Artist Residency and supported by Arts Council England.
Seagull Productions is the creative collaboration of Lucy Havard and Conor Dumbrell, a duo of London-based actors and writers whose work focusses on the intersection between live performance and sound design. The pair met at LAMDA while training for the BBC Carleton Hobbs Award and have since created a portfolio of original theatre and audio productions including INSIDES, which debuted at Pleasance’s New Work Season, and GUTS, an audio drama anthology series.
