Did you know that the Beatles’ song “Octopus’s Garden” actually pre-dated the discovery of the four underwater habitats where 6,000 pregnant female octopuses gather in geothermal waters before giving birth?
People of every age will experience the childlike awe and wonder the ocean has inspired across the centuries as an exhilarating fusion of music, songs, stories, poems, myths and scientific wonders, is brought to life by an all-star cast of actors, singers and musicians.
Whether you are 6 or 106, we invite you to set sail with us at The Saban!
