Octonauts and the Deep Sea Volcano Adventure - Live Show Review

My son and daughter have been into the Octonauts for a long time, we have the books, figures and magazines and now we have been to see them live.

So when we got the opportunity to head to the New Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham to see the Octonauts Live we were super excited. More so because we had the pleasure of visiting with the lovely Jaime from The Olivers Madhouse and her adorable son.

This fabulous live show was an absolute pleasure to watch, the characters were engaging and being in full costume meant there was nothing else to distract from the characters and shows.

Following one of our favourite adventures, the show follows the crew of the octopod on a journey to the midnight zone, along the the way you get to see some brilliant underwater scenes using UV light.

The play starts with actions and songs that got everyone singing, the inclusion of the children as sea cadets means that they felt part of the show and were getting involved from the start.

Overall this show was wonderful, my one small gripe was the sale of small spinning lights which distracted from the show and were so bright they dazzled you. 

But the children didn't notice and they were still talking about the show for days after so it really was a hit. 

This fabulous show is currently touring around the country and is the perfect way to introduce younger children to the theatre with characters they already know and love. 

NB: We were given tickets for the purpose of the review, all opinions are my own.
