Briney Pickle Whorl – who really did look like a pickle through certain stages of her creation – now goes by just “Pickles”. She is the latest addition to our whale family and was created to replace Jessie, who recently retired and got adopted by our legendary friends at Ship4Good. Jessie is now on adventures onboard the MV Steve Irwin!

Brought to life by two puppeteers, Pickles glides through crowds with gentle curiosity. She is a whale calf – fresh out of the deep and full of wonder and wobble. Still learning the world around her, she is spiralling in all the best ways as she discovers her environment.

She is part of our show Whale Song, but also available for solo roving performances or in combination with our sea creatures or any of our other puppets – get in touch for details!
