3-8 year olds and their families will love this adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks’ hugely popular book, brought to life with beautiful puppetry and performance, and music and songs by Barb Jungr (We’re Going on a Bear Hunt).

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

One day the singing mermaid is tempted away from all of her sea-creature friends to join a travelling circus. The audiences love to hear her sing, but the poor mermaid was tricked! Instead of the swimming pool she was promised, she is kept in a small fish tank by the wicked circus master Sam Sly.

She longs to return to the sea, but how can she escape? And who could help her along the way?
