An innovative puppet theater piece for children and adults that takes place in an unusual setting: in a caravan converted into a submarine, the MS Suzanna. Together with the captain, the audience embarks on an unforgettable journey into the depths of the ocean.

A living coral reef, colorful schools of fish and mysterious creatures, such as a giant octopus, are brought to life with handmade figures and backdrops made from recycled materials. Not only is the fascination of the underwater world made tangible, but important topics such as climate change and marine pollution are also dealt with subtly and with humor.

The submarine offers a unique micro-theater experience for up to 20 people per dive. Each performance offers two different dives, so that a total of up to 40 people can explore the fascinating underwater world. For those who prefer to watch the adventure from the outside, there is an alternative: you can watch the performance from another “corner of the sea”, from outside the submarine.
