Is there anything you want so much you'd tear yourself apart? May longs for a baby, but mermaids don't have wombs. When she's offered that chance, in exchange for her voice, her body and her culture, should she take it?
Updating The Little Mermaid to post-industrial Hull, PBH’s Free Fringe Spoken Word Newcomer winner Lucy Ayrton weaves a dark feminist fable with poetry, music and a little bit of magic. Direction and music by Superbard.
‘Brilliantly subversive’ (Scotsman). ‘Storytelling how it's meant to be’
**** (ThreeWeeks). ‘Fabulous... a must see’ ***** (SabotageReviews.com).
SUPPORT FROM TEES WOMEN POETS - a collaborative, collaged performance of poems inspired by the sea. From bones on the beach to the nimble fingers of net-knotters...
SUPPORT FROM SARA DENNIS - beautiful songs and shanties from local musician
