Fish & The Yesterday Song is a live performance
interweaving poetic memories and mythical tales
with stunning projections and soundscapes.
Humorous, haunting, magical and mysterious.
This contemporary performance piece with original
sound, film and live performance, is inspired by
artistic collaborations between Skimstone and
both young and older participants from Newcastle
and South Tyneside.

Commissioned by Helix Arts, the film and
photographic exhibition of the Fish & The
Yesterday Song, premiered at The Customs
House ArtsCentre, South Shields to an amazing
audience response, prompting further dialogue
between its creators and leading to Skimstone
exploring; Who holds dominion – the ocean or
humanity? What does the ocean offer and what
do we treasure? Who remembers the song
of the sea?
