The sea is all around us but we know so little about her
life.

McManus, an old fisherman from Fisherman's Cove has seen it
all.  When he was young the fishing was
good and the sea teaming with life.  Now
he's old, sad and grumpy and spends his days sitting on the rocks lamenting the
good old days.  But his granddaughter Jo
has found something at the beach - a special pearl - and all may not be lost
...

This is the story of a fisherman's love, and a precious gift
that gives him knowledge of the creatures below the waves.  A comic, tragic, yet hopeful telling of a
story that affects us all.

With puppetry, mask, storytelling and animation for everyone
over the age of 5.

KS1 + KS2

Duration 50 minutes plus a 20 minute interpretive talk after the show.

A 34 page action pack for every child to take away, produced by the
Marine Conservation Society and full of interesting facts and fun puzzles about
our seas.
