Light Hearted Theatre Company are getting ready for their last three weeks of rehearsals for "The Little Mermaid" before the big competition when Janice, the leading lady leaves! Daniela Woods arrives just in time to step into the costume, but is she in time to save Director Sam and his team's dream of being crowned regional champions?

This play is an original Mokushla Theatre creation, with the 1st act written by Cat Hunter and directed by Robert Schonau. It was first performed at Cheshire Drama Festival 1 Act Play at Nantwich Players in April and then again at Greater Manchester Drama Festival.

The 2nd act continues the story as Light Hearted Theatre Company continue to rehearse for the competition.  The story has been created by the cast in a workshop style.  

There is no script ! But don't worry, there is a story line which the cast will perform.

“I read this play and I laughed”, “Natural and entertaining”. Ruth Cattell, Adjudicator GoDA
