About

A special live performance of Salar: The Story of the Salmon

Join us for a 50-minute performance that brings together stories, myths and science through language, movement, live music and puppetry.
Salar: The Story of the Salmon explores the life cycle and plight of the Atlantic salmon while inviting us to consider the deep connections between this species, people and the natural world.
For thousands of years, Atlantic salmon have intertwined with, supported and enriched human and non-human life. This performance offers a meaningful, multi-layered journey into those connections and a chance to reflect on how everything in nature is interconnected.
