What the Ocean Said
Sydney Opera House presents
What the Ocean Said

11 Oct 2025 to 12 Oct 2025

Join creativity and wellness for young children, with our specially commissioned storytelling and meditation experience with digital projections. This is a sensory world of vivid storytelling, dreamy electronic music, animation and the wonder of our Sydney Harbour.

You are invited to relax in a sea of pillows amidst a magical space of calm. Follow the journey of a humpback whale diving deep into the water, and expanding into the reaches of the ocean itself. With mindfulness techniques wrapped up in a story time adventure, we’ll introduce younger children to meditation, and offer bigger kids a whole new perspective.

What the Ocean Said is a Sydney Opera House New Work Now commission, enabled by Jane & Russell Kift and by the Turnbull Foundation.
