The Little Mermaid is a brand new production from Northern Ballet. Lauren Godfrey goes behind the scenes
WE all know the story: young red-headed mermaid trades her beautiful voice in return for a pair of legs and sets off on to the land to win the heart of her beloved Eric. Such is the world of The Little Mermaid according to Disney. However, this winter the tide is turned as Northern Ballet brings home its third and final world premiere of 2017 with a 21st century adaptation of the original Hans Christian Andersen fairytale.
Dark, yet hopeful; painful, but at the same time magical; Northern Ballet’s The Little Mermaid packs a powerful emotional punch as the young mermaid, Marilla sacrifices her life under the sea in pursuit of unrequited love. In constant pain from her newly acquired legs, and unable to speak, Marilla’s wonderment at the human world gives way to heartbreak as she realises that the dashing Prince Adair will never love her. All she has left is a choice; to kill the Prince and return to her life as a mermaid, or sacrifice herself so he can live in peace.
