Show Particulars

SQUID LID is a Dark Electro-Pop spectacle for the everyday explorer. This deep sea experience takes audiences (lovingly called Tentacles) on an eerie journey through the strange and unusual world that is Squid Lid.

A typical show is an hour lone performance that includes costumes, music and dance. We require UV lighting.
