Contemplative, melancholy, and playful, Absorbing

See it if You like contemplative and playful shoes that wear their melancholy lightly.

Don't see it if You require the tension of a linear plot. Read more

Disappointing, Slow, Excruciating, Dizzying, Confusing

See it if You like listening to the sea waves constantly as that's the bgm

Don't see it if You want to watch some semblance of a play! I didn't get anything out of it other than the premise which I knew before watching it!

“Throughout the show’s 110 minutes I wished that the acting could have been as strange as the text...A mysterious show which, for me, didn’t quite work.”

“ ‘Sea Creatures’ is head-spinning in many ways and had me thinking about it for hours thereafter, debating hidden meanings...In the play we are told that the sea always has her price. In the case of ‘Sea Creatures’ that price is worth paying.”
