| Description |
Epic tales, roguish folklore, spirited sea shanties and soulful ballads merge with exquisite animation to bring this rousing, feel-good production to life. Written and performed by acclaimed New Zealand actor Ian Hughes (Bare, Shortland Street), Ship Songs weaves together three compelling sea- going adventures that span five centuries and four continents. Inspired by the remarkable true story of how his parents fell in love, Hughes effortlessly jumps between characters and countries to build three hilarious and unpredictable tales. Music is performed live by Don McGlashan, Chris O’Connor, Ian Hughes and Dave Khan. |
