OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | New Zealand, 1941, under threat of a Japanese invasion Louise MacGregor, formidable scientist, and Mae Smith, untried youngster, are sent on a mission in search of Pterocladia Lucida, a simple seaweed to aid the war effort.

Inspired by Lucy B. Moore’s scouring of the New Zealand coast for seaweed beds, The Secret Life of Seaweed tells the story of two women who learn to feel deeply about nature and each other in a time when expressing feelings of deep emotional sadness were forbidden for the good of all. The Secret Life of Seaweed is written by Julie McKee and directed by Jean Randich with projection and set design by Sue Rees. The show is a co-production of Collider Theater and HB Studio.
