Humorous and virtuoso puppet theater that blends original music, innovative video projection, and characters that float through dimensions, unrestricted by time, gravity, and biology.
The Immortal Jellyfish Girl is a compelling tale of humanity on the brink of extinction and the unlikely hero who might save them all. The year is 2555. Large parts of the Earth's surface are considered dead zones, and mass extinction has begun.
There is a war (there's always a war), but as both sides become desperate, their thirst for destruction becomes more and more fleeting. An unlikely meeting between an orphan boy and a jellyfish girl threatens to tip the balance forever, but in whose favor and at what cost?
A mysterious man in a homemade fox costume has seen all this before, has lived through this tragedy many times, but he is determined that it will end differently now.
