Event Series: The Little Mermaid

Queensland Ballet: The Little Mermaid

23 December @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm AEDT

Mermaids, magical sea creatures, and a wish: discover one of the world’s favourite fairytales reimagined for ballet in this spellbinding adaptation of The Little Mermaid.

With a few extra magical twists and turns, this delightful family adventure is based on the original Danish story written by Hans Christian Andersen almost 200 years ago. It follows the treasured tale of our young mermaid heroine who falls in love with a human Prince and faces an impossible decision: is love worth the risk?

Audiences of all ages will enjoy a parade of well-known and exciting new characters, including the courageous Little Mermaid, captivating Prince, a wicked Sea Witch, and two slippery eels. The familiar storyline of the shipwreck and rescue, spells and sacrifices, and the journey of falling in love, is beautifully revealed in an underwater wonderland.
