Melody and the Fishes
Melody and the Fishes, by Sharon King-Campbell, is a puppet play that
tells the tale of a Newfoundland woman coming home to her roots. Joining
Skipper as crew on his fishing boat, Melody is lost overboard. In the
ocean, she transforms into a cod fish and, with the help of the
Fishimagician and Caitlin the Capelin, tries to find her way home. Dealing
with the ravages of overfishing, drilling in sensitive environments, and
climate change, Melody and the Fishes takes you on a deep journey
beneath the seas. Suitable for all ages.
