The Little Mermaid
By Devon Tyrrell
Directed by Devon Tyrrell
A new adaptation of a much-loved fairy tale.
Oceana, the Little Mermaid, has to convince Prince Hans to marry her within 24 hours before she turns into sea foam, all without her voice that she has bargained away to the Evil Sea Witch, Pearl.
Will Oceana get to Prince Hans before Pearl does?
Will Queen Iva ever convince Prince Hans to get married?
Will Oceana’s friends and family be able to help her get her voice back?
Why is everyone just eating fish?
Dive in and join Oceana to discover what can happen when you give up your voice, for the chance to walk on land!
