Legend tells of a beautiful sapphire created eternities ago that gives its wearer total power. It was thought it had been lost to history, but it has resurfaced and sparked a sea-faring power struggle like no other.
An infamous pirate throws a party onboard her ship and invites all: queens, princesses, mermaids, and vampires alike. But is one of her wicked schemes brewing? Will all our revellers make it to the last dance?
acta’s Young Carers’ Ocean of Dark is an exciting adventure, exploring the endless search for power and the consequences of it. This unique and thrilling horror will be spooky and dark, with some laughter along the way.
About acta’s Young Carers Youth Theatre
acta has been working with an ever-changing group of Young Carers from Bristol for twenty five years now. In that time, we have supported hundreds of young carers to create and perform their own original theatre.
Tickets for this show are completely free but we would be very grateful if booked ahead of time, and if you considered donating to our work as you book.
