Where The Bees Fly is an exciting new musical with a heartfelt message of family, unlikely friendships, and saving the environment. Set in a dystopian 2080 following the aftermath of global warming and climate change (based upon real research and scientific prediction), we follow adolescent Lotta as she begins to understand the world around her in comparison to the world she wishes she could know. Accompanied by history teacher Andor Fog, Lotta travels to 2017 where she meets modern punk activist Hazel, and the three of them embark on an adventure to save the planet for all of us.
Where The Bees Fly premiered in June 2023 with a cast of local young people from Walsall, in co-production with RicNic. We are now exploring what the future life of the show looks like.
