As the world turns its attention to the health of our waters for World Oceans Week (June 1-8), Mocean Dance and Sable Island Institute announce the return of its visionary co-production, Sea Unseen. This immersive dance performance offers a poignant reflection on a crisis that remains as urgent as ever: the over-consumption of single-use plastics.

Beyond the captivating beauty of its wild horses and windswept dunes, Sea Unseen uncovers the hidden story of ocean plastic pollution on Sable Island. Dance, music, and storytelling unite in a delicate balance of artistic expression and environmental activism, holding space for the urgent and complex issue of plastic pollution. Born from a collaboration between Mocean Dance and the Sable Island Institute, Sea Unseen embodies the struggles of the ocean itself, navigating a sea of plastic in search of hope.
