The Fiji Mermaid, with Lynne Thomas

Short piece commissioned by the Booth Museum, Brighton. Lynne Thomas, Bill the monkey and myself present the audience with proof that mermaids really do exist. With live music, puppetry and rhyme, we tell the tragic tale of the beautiful Fiji Mermaid, a curiosity famously exhibited by P.T. Barnum in the 1800s.
Performed at the Booth Museum, Brighton, and Brighton Museum in Autumn 2014, and Spring 2015.

Written by Daisy Jordan and Lynne Thomas. Puppetry by Daisy Jordan. Music written and performed by Lynne Thomas.
