Polar Bear & Penguin is a quirky tale of our time, infused with humour, friendship and fish.
What happens when polar opposite characters meet for the first time? This tender and heartfelt show follows a polar bear and a penguin as they get to know one another and learn how to survive in a world that is melting beneath their feet...paws...flippers.
Polar Bear & Penguin was originally developed by Paul Curley & Draíocht. Paul is supported by Meitheal: A Branar Initiative 2022-2023.
