The Pure Blue


Shanghai Theatre Academy College of Dance (China)

Have you ever seen the tears of whales trapped by fishing nets, struggling in despair? Have you ever heard the wails of dolphins stuck in plastic waste, helplessly calling for freedom? The ocean is not just for humans, it belongs to every living creature. Swimming with seahorses, surfing with bottlenose dolphins, exploring the vibrant coral reefs –that is the beauty of the pure blue. Let’s protect our oceans before they become silent, before life beneath the waves fades away forever. Performed in Mandarin with English surtitles.
