Flotsam

A new opera for young children based on the much-loved picture book by David Wiesner.

When a curious child discovers a mysterious camera washed up on the beach, the photos inside reveal a chain of children linked across time and space and an extraordinary underwater world.

Turtles carry cities, starfish dance, octopuses read by lamplight – but who took the pictures and where will the camera travel next?

Kerry Andrew’s luminous new score and text blends music, movement and storytelling to explore curiosity, connection and the boundless power of imagination. A spellbinding adventure for audiences of all ages.

Flotsam is an OperaUpClose production.
