Performed by Sachie Mikawa
Through the eyes of a talking fish, a magical encounter of two girls across time and oceans tells the story of an eccentric family and their house by the sea.
Fish Saw is a collection of intimate and moving stories told by the Little Girl with Glasses and her best friend, the giant talking fish. Can their unlikely friendship survive the catastrophe that destroyed the town and lives most dear to her? Based on the true stories of Sachie’s family, Fish Saw is a ‘Miyazaki meets Garcia Marquez’ one-woman show created by Japanese performer/composer, Sachie Mikawa, and Argentine-based American director, George Lewis. The show features original stop-motion animation and musical score.
This performance is presented as part of and in collaboration with TAHI: New Zealand Festival of Solo Performance. This five-day festival is dedicated to showcasing Aotearoa’s finest, most engaging solo performance. TAHI gathers soloists from around the nation, and beyond – from established to emerging practitioners – to present work, collaborate and make connections across the industry. Alongside premiering and showcasing solo performances, the Festival provides opportunities for practitioners to extend the life of their performance work, to upskill, and to network through an integrated programme of performance, workshops, and forums. TAHI also seeks to foster relationships among tertiary institutions, actor training courses, secondary schools, BATS Theatre, and industry professionals.
