The Little Mermaid

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

The Little Mermaid loves swimming, dancing and spending time with her friends. She might be different to the other sea creatures but they're family and these waters are home. So when the sea starts to get warmer - the kelp wilting, the coral fading - she realises she has to act. The mermaid vows to protect their home and it seems a caring young man trying to restore the coral reef is just the person to help. But how much is she willing to sacrifice to find answers on land? Can the Sea Witch really be trusted to help? And what oily monsters lurk in the deep? Dive into a magical underwater Kingdom this Christmas with Bristol Old Vic's bold and breathtaking re-imagining of the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale about love, hope, and how no one is too small to change the world.
