The Little Mermaid

Far beyond the Cornish coast, deep beneath the rolling waves, lies the magical kingdom of the Seafolk.

Merryn, daughter of the Sea King, eagerly awaits her birthday – the day she sees the world above the surface for the very first time.

Drawn towards a fishing boat and longing to discover more, Merryn is captivated by a world of twinkling lights and the charm of the Landfolk’s song. When a sudden storm strikes, she saves Cadan, a young fisherman who is thrown overboard. But, whilst Merryn’s been away, her home has been thrown into turmoil, and her younger brother is missing. Heartbroken, Merryn must choose whether to take a perilous bargain, risking everything to protect those she loves.

This magical new Watermill production of The Little Mermaid weaves together salty sea air, folk and sea shanty inspired songs, conjuring an ethereal world below the waves for this festive season.
