Come and see Barking Gecko's collaboration with Japan's Theatre Seigei for the Perth International Arts Fesitval.

A gentle tale of friendship, discovery and growing up. Ran is the littlest kitten of the litter. He can't jump, hide or pounce as well as his brothers and sisters so he trains in secret to improve his skills. It's thirsty work. While drinking at a pond Ran meets a goldfish who becomes his best friend.

Then Mother Cat announces a test for Ran and his siblings to mark their coming of age. They must catch the goldfish in the pond.

What will Ran do?
