Man Billy, a solitary young fisherman, lives with his domineering mother, Widow Pruttock. Two things govern their life: the herring harvest and their devotion to God.

Into this cold and isolated life comes Sheldis, a singer with supernatural gifts. As Billy’s obsession with her grows, his mother –   believing her son bewitched – will do anything to break the spell.

Filled with sea shanties, dances, hymns and folk songs, SALT is a fierce tale of faith, jealousy and demonic passion.

Great Yarmouth’s Contemporary Ritual Theatre makes vital and arresting plays, creating a visceral new form of theatre which places ritual – ancient and modern – at the heart of their practice. Blending folklore, movement and mask work, and using only a rope on the ground for a stage, CRT unites audiences and performers in a single, unforgettable ritual


“Visceral and immersive…you can almost smell the sea air. SALT draws you in and leaves you feeling truly transported.” A Young(ish) Perspective

“Deliciously grimy” The Guardian
