In this hilariously twisted tale, Ursula shares her side of the story, offering insights into what truly transpired under the sea.

With music by multi-award-winning composer Tim Gilvin and vibrant stage design by Abby Clarke, the production promises a magical experience filled with laughter, memorable tunes, and delightful puppetry.

Shawna Hamic, the actor who plays Ursula, said: 

“I want whoever comes to see our show to have a fantastic time. I also want to empower people to truly take pride and power in who they are. Maybe you don’t look the way ‘society’ thinks you should look, maybe you feel like you are on the outside. We want you to celebrate yourself and know that you are amazing the way you are.”
