Went to your production of the little mermaid today. It was beautiful I loved every minute of it. My daughter was dancing and singing along to the songs too.
I loved all the costumes too. It was great that the cast came out after the show and posed for photos. My daughter was over the moon to be able to meet the mermaids.
The Windmill Theatre Company blew me away today with their production of The Little Mermaid at the Drum Theatre in Dandenong today. To say that the show exceed all expectations would be a huge understatement to all who took part in the production. From the opening silk routine to the closing wedding scene I was completely spellbound and would recommend this performance to anyone thinking of going. The music, the singing, the detail in the wardrobe, the staging everything was top notch and rivals the efforts of some of the major Theatre Company's. A big thumbs up from me.
We had front row seats at The Little Mermaid today, it was AMAZING! Highly recommended, thank you for a wonderful afternoon, our girls will remember this one for a very long time.
