It seems unlikely that a swashbuckler and a sea creature could become friends, but when a cranky yet lovable Pirate gets thrown overboard, thus begins our story of The Pirate & the Squid.

With his wise-cracking Parrot in tow, a Pirate is led through an underwater adventure -- thanks to a benevolent Squid. In effort to find his way back to shore, they meet, and learn all about, a Sea Snail, Crab, Seahorse, and potentially dangerous Shark. What ensues is an educational escapade, which embodies the theme of unexpected friendship.

The Pirate & the Squid requires 5 actors, minimal space and set, and has a running time of 30 minutes.
