SUMMARY:British Youth Muisic Theatre - Sea Change
DESCRIPTION:Sea Change is a bold new folk musical exploring belonging\, community\, and the risks and rewards of stepping into the unknown. \nThe story unfolds in Blackwater Cove\, where under the rare phenomenon of the Tidal Eclipse\, Selkies of the sea are granted a week to walk upon land. Shedding their enchanted seal coats\, they live among humans and taste the possibilities of another world. \nBut when the full moon rises\, the tide will turn.\nWill they return to the sea or life their life on land? \nBursting with folk melodies\, nautical ballads and rip-roaring shanties\, Sea Change brings mythology into modern Britain in this heartwarming tale of the eternal pull between where we come from and who we might become.
