"GASTROPODIA"

From a realm far away, comes a curious mythical creature, it's kind unseen before.

Harnessed and ridden by a woodland imp, the giant hairy snail slimes its way along streets, malls and parklands to the amazement of onlookers and passers-by alike. The snail comes with its own musical score, has lots of moving body parts, and leaves a watery snail trail.  Bewildered to find themselves in our world, and by our strange ways, these mythical creatures are nevertheless always friendly, like to be patted (the snail that is!) and love a photo opportunity.  They’re also hoping to find someone to show them the way home. A visually spectacular non verbal roving show, appealing to all ages, and suitable for any outdoor event, or large indoor setting.

Only available as a solo at present (one snail, one performer, one technical assistant)
