Tales from a Sea Journey

NIE Company

Seafaring myths, shanties and stories from the deep abound in this epic piece of theatre - all inspired by a journey half-way across the world! Sail alongside a Second World War naval officer in the Indian Ocean and discover the story of Ella, the first ever Norwegian female trawlerwoman. These tales and more intertwine with NIE’s own experiences on their voyage exploring the magnificent pull and power of the sea.
