Bristol Old Vic The Little Mermaid Production Photographs

Bristol theatre’s Christmas production runs until January 2025

Bristol Old Vic has released a series of production shots for this season’s Christmas show The Little Mermaid.

Photographer Johan Persson, captured the action taking place in this brand new production of Hans Christian Andersen’s much-loved fairytale.

The Little Mermaid loves to swim, dance and spend time with her friends. When she realises the sea starts to get warmer – affecting the kelp and coral – she takes action.

The story is told through original songs, circus and dance. It’s written by Sonali Bhattacharyya and Bristol’s Olivier winning director Miranda Cromwell.

The Little Mermaid runs at Bristol Old Vic until Saturday 11 January 2025
