"A stowaway's guide to the Pacific" is an exploration of some of the great voyages of history, presented as an interactive documentary drama. Written and designed for children aged between 8 and 12 years old, the project has cleverly utilised the online environment to enable young audiences to engage with not only the drama's characters and their journey, but the various historical times to which they are transported.
