WHEN two women met on a beach in September 2020 during Melbourne's lockdown, they had no idea they were starting a movement. By December, sixty women had joined them. They called themselves the Mt Martha Sea Wolves.
Sea Wolves Howl brings their extraordinary stories to life through vivid theatre and original songs. Five characters guide us through their daily ritual: waking before dawn, gathering on the shore, stripping down to their togs, joining hands so no-one can chicken out, howling like wolves, and plunging into the icy water together.

Sea Wolves Howl, Berninneit, Sunday, June 21, 2pm Age recommendation: 15+ (some adult themes and strong language) Bookings: Trybooking |
Each step of this journey offers particular physical challenges and evokes powerful stories. We meet women facing grief, illness, family violence, and social isolation. We witness their transformation as they discover that cold-water therapy becomes whole-life therapy, unleashing a wildness and playfulness that says yes to the universe with a mighty howl.
When they brave the wild sea, the differences that divide them on land are stripped away as they expose their bodies and souls to the water, to nature, and sometimes to each
other. In this sacred space, they are seen, supported, celebrated and loved for their true selves.
Created through extensive interviews and conversations with the real Sea Wolves community, this work transforms their actual words into dialogue, monologue, song, image and movement. Featuring older female and gender-fluid performers boldly strutting their stuff in their togs, Sea Wolves Howl celebrates community resilience, the transformative power of nature, and the beauty of finding your wet and wild together.
This local production, commissioned for the Flinders Fringe Festival, is based on the stories of a group of women and non-binary people who bonded over cold-water swimming during COVID. Together, they discovered the power of the pack as they literally howled their troubles, and their triumphs, to the sky.
