Coalesce Dance Theatre | Mika and The Polar Bear
Mika and the Polar Bear is an imaginative and unforgettable journey into the wonders of our natural world, with friendship, compassion, and the power of hope at its centre.
When Mika is swept away by a climate disaster, they find themselves far from home in a strange, ever-changing world. Mika meets creatures across land, sea and sky, each with their own story of playful resilience and survival. But nothing could prepare Mika for the most unexpected new friendship of all; a lone Polar Bear living in an icy wonderland. Together, they must brave the wild, navigate the unknown, and learn to rely on each other as they journey toward a new beginning.
Featuring original music, digital animation, and enchanting puppetry, Mika and the Polar Bear is a dynamic new dance-theatre production for all ages, celebrating resilience, friendship, and the courage to journey on.
