Puppetry, magic and storytelling combine in a unique, Olivier Award-winning stage adaptation of the best-selling novel.
After a cargo ship sinks in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean, a 16-year-old boy named Pi is stranded on a lifeboat with four other survivors – a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan and a Royal Bengal tiger.
Time is against them, nature is harsh, who will survive?
Filmed live in London’s West End and featuring state-of-the-art visuals, the epic journey of endurance and hope is bought to life in a breathtaking new way for cinemas screens. This is a visually stunning adaptation of Yann Martel’s whimsical bestseller, with puppetry work in the ‘War Horse’ style, a vibrantly realised menagerie of beasts whose every breath is immaculately choreographed.
Not to be missed.
