Sea Wolves Howl

They called themselves the Mt Martha Sea Wolves.

Sea Wolves Howl brings their extraordinary stories to life through vivid theatre and original songs. Five characters guide us through their daily ritual: waking before dawn, gathering on the shore, stripping down to their togs, joining hands so no-one can chicken out, howling like wolves, and plunging into the icy water together.

Based on true stories of a remarkable community, Sea Wolves Howl is vivid theatre with catchy songs. Early each morning, an intrepid intergenerational group of women and gender- fluid people meet on the beach, enter the freezing sea, join hands, howl like wolves, and immerse together.

“A truly special a work born from genuine community connection that speaks to universal themes of resilience, transformation, and the healing power of collective experience..”
