C’mon in, the water’s lovely is a collaboration between visual artist Aidan Moesby and theatre maker Daniel Bye. It follows their Jarman Award-nominated collaboration I Was Naked, Smelling of Rain.

What is the climate cost of disability justice?

The presentation at Stockton International Riverside Festival takes the form of an installation set within an Antarctic research station located within Castlegate Shopping Centre.
