The Little Mermaid

As part of the school production I was asked to write and practice a play that would last 15 minutes and be performed in front of the students' parents, family and friends.

So I went about writing an adoptation of The Little Mermaid, with considerable help from Kate. I practiced it in class and after many hours of sweat and determination from the students they were ready to entertain us. The night finally arrived and the nerves kicked in for me and the students. Satisfyingly the play was a complete success and people were all full of complements for the play and costumes. Here are some pictures from that night in March.
