The Little Mermaid, Braintree Arts Theatre, Abigail’s Performing Arts , May 20 and 21

Local adult performers look out!

The under 18’s who performed this hypnotic Disney Show, from Mersisters onwards, made it a night to remember.

What singing voices and stage awareness the fabulous lead, Francesca Larkin and her wonderfully deep-throated would-be-nemesis, Lolly Clarke had, as did Maddie Collett, her comic sidekick Sebastian, and Daisy Rusdale, an energetic Scuttle.

William Smith was a gorgeous Prince, a pity that his lovely Grimsby, Frasier Hughes and several of the large, talented cast were un-miked, because that was the only production minus.

The captivating staging of this colourful show owed much to Abigail’s adult Crew too. Bravo!
