An oxygen-deprived dead zone is spreading off the Western coast of Canada, and fisherman Jack Travail is feeling the impact.

When scientist Charlotte Wallace discovers that her research might bring life back to the ocean, Jack feels it can't be implemented fast enough.

Four actors bring this fast-paced tale to life on a 3 foot by 6 foot illuminated platform, portraying dozens of characters and locations with the help of composer Ethan Cole's original score.

Featuring Ellen Close, Col Cseke, Nicola Elson and Braden Griffiths, with direction by Simon Mallett, design by Anton deGroot and an original score composed by Ethan Cole
