The Blue Knot | Are you ready to set sail onto the open seas and save the people of the harbour? Time is running out and we need your help!

The Blue Knot is a 45-minute interactive sea-shanty musical adventure for children aged 4 to 8 years old and their families. It features original songs performed live on musical instruments, alongside singing and moving to music together. Our story tells the tale of a Captain who is on a journey to help feed the harbour community. The Captain wants to find food for the people of the harbour but will greed get the better of them?
