About this episode
The episode introduces 'Set Sail!', a story about three children navigating their way home after being separated, featuring themes of survival and interactive storytelling.
It’s been 3 years since Leo, Frankie and Mikhail were left to survive on the streets of Trine after a mysterious house fire that took their parents. Now, they’ve been separated for the first time and must find their way back to each other. While Leo is captured by the intimidating Lord Cull and bought as a slave, Mikhail and Frankie find themselves amongst pirates on a ship and sailing to another land! The children learn more about themselves and the world they’ve been thrust into as they try to navigate their way home – but life isn’t as simple as it once was. Set Sail! is a story about following your own path; choosing your own destiny. The interactive nature of the show plays into that theme by allowing the audience to help choose the path. The story is also about found family and survival. It’s a coming of age story with lots of lighthearted moments, fun characters and adventure.
