Have you ever wondered what’s below the surface?
Little M is a reimagining of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid for anyone who feels like they’re swimming against the tide.
Little M and their friend Punk the Puffer Fish find a suitcase filled with mysterious treasures, leading them to wonder about the ‘world above’. With their questions met by silence under the sea, they embark on an epic adventure intro the wondrous worlds above the waves and deep down below.
Fantastical puppetry, magical transformations and spectacular dance all combine to tell this extraordinary coming-of-age story. Little M brings a celebration of difference and acceptance for everyone aged eight and above, choreographed and co-directed by Anders Duckworth, and written and co-directed by Luke Skilbeck.
