OUT OF THE DEEP BLUE is an outdoor physical theatre performance featuring a 13-foot tall Puppet operated by 5 puppeteers and a female dancer.  

 This spectacle is designed specifically for family and festival audiences and tells the magical story of Eko, a sea giant who rises from the deep ocean and who encounters, on the shore, a courageous little girl called Violet. 

The choreography is a larger-than-life ‘pas de deux’, which uses contemporary dance theatre and masterful puppeteering as storytelling tools, accompanied by a mesmerising soundscape.  

 The performance is in two-parts: a 25-minute promenade of the giant puppet interacting with the location, environment, architecture and the audience, and a 25-minute dance theatre duet located at a set performance space (traditionally the walkabout leads to static show). 

Created in 2021, OUT OF THE DEEP BLUE has toured and continues to tour extensively across the UK and internationally. The show has visited over 95 festivals and performed to more than 760,000 audience members. 

A large-scale travelling performance featuring a Giant Wheel powered by 6 performers and a community cast of local participants celebrating individual identities whilst honouring our collective journeys.
Autin Dance Theatre uses their unique blend of contemporary storytelling, striking physicality and innovative large designs to transport audiences and communities along a carefully choreographed procession.
The Giant Wheel carries the performers high above the streets, spins them around ferociously, turning their worlds upside down, at times giving them momentum and speed, and at others rocking them gently back and forth imitating the laborious and repetitive cycle of life.

Developed in 2023, Parade – The Giant Wheel has toured and continues to tour extensively across the UK. The show has visited 10 festivals so far, performing to more than 16,000 live audiences. 

Street Games is an inclusive and accessible fun day of street games, live music and dance with BSL Performance and Interpretation. 

You can expect games from around the world that everyone can get involved in, hosted by 3 fabulous Game Hosts and party music sets from EIF Sound and Music throughout the day. 

Recently commissioned by OPUS (Outdoor Places Unusual Spaces) as the official Festival Site warm-up party to the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games Opening Ceremony and for Birmingham Pride, we engaged with a total number of 6750 people!
