Whalebone
Set within a place called the ‘Depository’, Whalebone follows a solitary worker as he tries to safeguard human stories, memories and emotions in a data-driven world where AI and machines are going rogue, and making more and more decisions for us.
Featuring dazzling video and computer animations, flying objects and a pinch of circus, this richly visual theatrical experience takes kids and adults alike on a roller-coaster ride filled with eccentric contraptions, strange machinery and clunky inventions, including the world’s first half-human juggling machine!
Perfect for kids aged 6–12 years, Whalebone will inspire the minds of young aspiring inventors, as well as everyone who loves stories, surprises and wonders, and leave audiences pondering what role technology plays in our lives and just what it is that makes us humans human.
Whalebone is performed by Jens Altheimer, the imaginative inventor and comedian who delighted Ipswich audiences with his previous shows Squaring the Wheel and Loose Ends.
The show runs for 60 minutes with no interval and there’ll be plenty of audience participation, plus a Q & A after the show with the opportunity to check out all the contraptions!
Tickets $7. Bookings essential! Visit our website for session times and booking details.
