THE LITTLE MERMAID

frome musical theatre company present

This summer, Frome Musical Theatre Company’s award-winning youth group Spellbound are excited to be bringing the wonderful watery world of Atlantica to the Memorial

Theatre stage with their production of the Broadway adaptation of Disney’s The Little Mermaid.

Based on the 1989 animated film, the story revolves around rebellious mermaid Ariel, who is fascinated with the world above the ocean. Bored by her life under the sea with her friends Sebastian the Crab and Flounder the Fish, she spends her days visiting the water’s surface to explore with Scuttle the Seagull, a pastime forbidden by her father, King Triton. During a storm, she rescues the free-spirited human, Prince Eric, from drowning and falls hopelessly in love with him. Determined to win Eric’s heart, Ariel agrees to give her voice to the sea witch Ursula in exchange for three days on land as a human, with the deal that, if Prince Eric does not kiss her before the sun sets on the third day, she will belong to Ursula for ever. Will Ariel succeed? Swim over to the Frome Memorial Theatre Box Office to snap up your tickets and find out! Featuring songs from Alan Menken’s awardwinning score including ‘Part of Your World’, ‘Kiss the Girl’ and the Oscar, Grammy and Golden Globe winning ‘Under the Sea’, this production is set to be a true spectacle for all the family, with stunning choreography, beautiful puppets, dazzling costumes and our extraordinarily talented cast of young performers!

Performances at the Frome Memorial Theatre run from Thursday 4th - Saturday 6th August at 7pm plus a matinee on the Saturday at 2pm. Tickets: Adults £12 U16’s £10 over 60’s £11.
