Pin the Tale

CURRENT PRODUCTION INFORMATION: SPLASH! "I want to take you on a journey. Show you my world... One with no beginning. I'm not sure where I'm headed. Come join me for the ride..." From a puddle to the ocean, from a tap to the toilet, water is everywhere we go. Sometimes we don't have enough of it, other times we can't get away from it. Love it or hate it, we can't survive without it. Get your umbrella out and put your wellies on as we journey through the cycle of water from the perspective of a water droplet. Performance dates: » Lyric Hammersmith's Theatre in the Square (28 - 29th May) » Greenwich and Dockland's International Festival (22nd - 23rd June) » Watford Place Theatre's Imagine Watford (29th - 30th June) » Latitude Festival (18th -21st July). Splash! is the first collaboration between Pin the Tale and writer Andrea Pierides. Playful and inventive, Splash! explores the world of a water droplet and its cycle.
