The Tale of the Loneliest Whale
About The Tale of the Loneliest Whale
A magical and interactive show that celebrates friendship, difference and the beauty of being yourself.
“I can hear someone out there. They’re singing to me.”
Whale sings his heart out into the deep blue sea… but nobody sings back. Is he the only one like him in the whole ocean?
Just when he’s about to give up, a mysterious voice echoes through the waves. Determined to find the singer, Whale embarks on an unforgettable adventure—diving through glowing coral caves, dodging wibbly jellyfish and facing wild-eyed sea monsters! But will he ever find a friend who hears his song?
Join Hoglets Theatre for an exciting deep-sea adventure packed with beautiful puppets, hilarious sea creatures, original songs and lots of audience interaction!
Developed with children's insights into neurodiversity, this is a truly unique and heartfelt show for ages 4+.
“A fantastic piece of children’s theatre”
“A heart-warming show with a clear message of inclusion and acceptance” -
