Imagine you looked out of the window one morning and saw jellyfish. No birds fluttering, just a sky full of gelatinous animals. Every now and then a shark or tuna glides noiselessly past. And everywhere… Water.

With the strange beauty of a dream, Water inter-cuts between powerful individual stories, exploring man’s desire to push himself to the limits in an increasingly unstable world.

In Canada two half brothers clash over the legacy of their dead father. In Germany a young female special advisor tries to push through a deal at a political summit, whilst in Mexico a young Englishman prepares to dive the deepest freshwater cave in the world.

Filter, the theatre company behind Water, is renowned for its distinctive theatrical style that exposes the workings of a production; video is mixed onstage and sound is produced live by a musician and the performers to create a unique live chemistry experience for audiences.

Water is suitable for theatregoers aged 14 and older.
