Steve Backshall, British naturalist, explorer, presenter and writer, best known for his television series Deadly 60, brings his critically-acclaimed live show, Ocean to Australia for a national tour in January 2025. 

Ocean, Bringing Marine Dreams To Life, is a love letter to the most exciting environment on our planet.   Featuring stunts, experiments, props, cutting-edge science and big screen footage from his two decades in television, Backshall brings the icons of the Big Blue to life, live on stage.

From Great Whites to great whales, seals to sardine shoals, orca to the oddities of the deep; this is a fantastic opportunity for fans of all ages to dive deep and explore the enchanting world beneath the waves. 

“I can’t wait to get back on tour down under, the true home of Deadly wildlife! It’s been a few years since I last got to take my wildlife show on walkabout, and this time to talk Oceans with the finest continent for marine dreams!“ Steve said.

“I’m bringing the ocean’s aquatic environments and marine creatures to life on stage by using a giant screen featuring lots of amazing footage from my encounters with sharks, whales and dolphins over the years.  There will be on-stage science experiments, by using props, stunts and tricks, plus some outtakes and bloopers too.  Also, some life-size scale ocean giants that we’ll be bringing out on stage, which I think really helps because it’s very, very difficult to get a sense of how big these animals really are. Being able to replicate that on stage is a big part of the show.”

Tickets are now on sale from Ticketek.
