The Little Mermaid
January 9 - February 21, 2010
The ever-curious Little Mermaid is enthralled with the unknown world above the sea's shell and the humans that inhabit it. On one of her many adventures to the ocean's edge, a mysterious human catches her eye and soon, after a chance encounter with the Prince, the Little Mermaid realizes that she cannot live without the young sailor. Creatively brought to life by just two, very versatile actors, this fairy-tale exemplifies the value of love being more than skin-deep, and shows just how far one will go for the happiness of the ones they truly care for. The tale is adapted by Mike Kenny, with Bruce Merrill directing.
(Suitable for ages 4 and up)
