THE SINGING MERMAID

Did you ever go to Silversands On a sunny day? Then perhaps you saw the mermaid Who sang in the deep blue bay…

The singing mermaid is tempted away to join a travelling circus, with the promise of a life of excitement (and her own swimming pool!). The circus audiences love her singing but she soon finds she’s been tricked by the dastardly circus master.

Will she ever escape? And who will help her along the way?

With three talented performers, beautiful puppets and music & songs by Barb Jungr, Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks’ much-loved story comes to the stage.

Recommended for ages 3-8

This play is based on the original book The Singing Mermaid Written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Lydia Monks Text © Julia Donaldson 2013 Illustrations © Lydia Monks 2013 Published by Macmillan Children’s Books
