Created by Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia
Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia is thrilled to present a lively new take on three classic children’s stories. First up, “Billy Goats Gruff” features three hungry and hilariously determined goats on a quest to cross a bridge and reach the scrumptious, green grass on the other side. Their only obstacle? A grumpy, greedy troll with a taste for goat! Watch as these clever goats use their wits to outsmart the troll in this laugh-out-loud adventure.
Next, in “Wolf vs. Pigs,” the tables are turned on a sly Wolf, outsmarted by three resourceful pigs. Armed with tricks and traps, the pigs are ready to give the wolf a lesson in cunning and teamwork. It’s a humorous twist on the classic “Three Little Pigs” tale that’s sure to delight.
Finally, “Goldilocks,” a curious raccoon with a nose for trouble, stumbles upon a seemingly abandoned cottage. As Goldilocks samples the various comforts and tasty treats, little do they know that surprises await when the real owners come home. This lighthearted version of “Goldilocks and the Three Bears” promises giggles and gasps in equal measure. Perfect for children aged 3 to 7, this one-hour performance includes a question-and-answer session, ensuring a fun and engaging experience for the little ones.
