It can be hard to make friends. Especially if you have tentacles. Journey to Antarctica with a curious squid who seeks connection in the most unlikely of places. Penguins, orcas, and jellyfish abound in an icy landscape for this heartwarming tale of friendship. Beautifully handcrafted puppets, an original score by Ned Haskins, and a good dose of silliness combine to create a comedic, wordless performance that celebrates the ability to create connections, despite our differences.
