A Magical Guide to Fighting Fascism

Three women, three time periods, three regimes: one family full of secrets. An epic musical journey following three women in three places as they discover untold family truths.

Be transported magically between 1970s Chile, 2000s Perth, and modern-day Scotland as mysterious, tyrannical forces try to keep these women apart. Enter angry mermaids, wise trees, and messages travelling on the wind that whips the sand dunes.

Expect music, humour, and a dash of history, as you are guided on a multicultural voyage to discover what happens to families when secrets are buried and memories are lost at sea.
