Winner of the 2012 Helpmann Award for the Best Presentation for Children for Boats. This is the highest honor that a theatre company for young people can gain in Australia.
How wide is the ocean? How deep is the sea?
Boats is an astonishing maritime tale from Australia’s Terrapin Puppet Theatre, which has entertained kids internationally for 30 years. Boats tells of the watery adventures of Nic and Job, sailors who share a love of the ocean and seafaring. The story unfolds using actors, props, puppets, acrobatics, and sound effects created on stage, including some from an underwater microphone.
Terrapin Puppet Theatre and the tour of Boats are assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body, and through Arts Tasmania by the Minister for the Arts.
