Theatre Replacement (Vancouver)
Written by Sonja Bennett
Music by Veda Hille
Directed by Meg Roe
While Ariel is busking with her girl band at New Brighton Beach, she falls in love with a teenage mer-person. Ariel dives into an ocean adventure where she makes a questionable deal with a devilish octopus named Ursula, fights off evil electric eels with her trash crab BFF, Sebastian, and has to help save the ocean from a mysterious purple slime of despair.
Come join the incredible returning team of Sonja Bennett (writer), Meg Roe (director), long time Panto composer Veda Hille (music), and stand out alumni Dawn Petten, Amanda Sum, Mark Chavez and Ghazal Azarbad as we bring land and sea together for bubbly good times!
