The underwater world is rich with sounds. Dolphins whistle, porpoises orientate themselves by clicking and fishes talk while drumming, growling, and chirping. However, However, man too does not pass the sea silently. The sounds of ships, sonars, explosives, and fishing trawls are ear-shattering, disrupting the harmony of the soundscape. The Cusk collective brings the underwater world to the stage in all its beauty and brutality in the musical theatre performance Ear to Sea.
