The Whale's Tale - FREE

A free, outdoor family show in and around a giant whale!

Life for a whale is not all plain swimming. There may be lots of small creatures to eat and plenty of room in the sea but for a whale in modern times, life can be precarious. 

Immerse yourself in The Whale's Tale as you watch from the shore, or submerge yourself in this underwater playground full of surprises and become a part of this large outdoor performance. Ever wondered what it's like to be swallowed whole?

It's time to put on your shrimp helmet, take a deep breath and dive inside the massive jaws of Manilayo the humpback whale. become the hero of the story and live to tell the tale.

Born in a Taxi's The Whale's Tale is commissioned by Windmill and The Arts Centre Melbourne.

A great school holiday outing!
