Theatre Agápe presents an inclusive and adaptive production of *THE LITTLE MERMAID*! We believe theatre is for everyone, and we are doing our part to make it that way.

Following the success of our inclusive mainstage musicals *The Wizard of Oz *and *Seussical the Musical*, Theatre Agápe will be producing *The Little Mermaid* as an inclusive and adaptive theatrical experience! Our cast features people both neurodivergent and neurotypical, both disabled and able-bodied. We offer flexible seating options, a Sensory Break Room and a judgement-free space for anyone who wants to experience the joy of theatre. All performances are sensory-friendly, AND tickets are Pay-What-You-Can!

At its core, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a story about belonging, bravery, and finding your voice. Ariel dreams of a world beyond her own and dares to imagine life in spaces where she has never felt fully included. Her journey reflects the universal desire we all share: to be welcomed, celebrated, and free to express who we are. Just as Ariel discovers that differences can be bridges instead of barriers, our production embraces the idea that inclusion belongs in every place and space—on land, under the sea, and right here in our community.

From shimmering sea songs to heartfelt themes of belonging and bravery, this is The Little Mermaid like you’ve never seen it before.

Accessible. Joyful. Unmissable.

*Questions?* We at Theatre Agápe believe theatre is for everyone, so we’ve put together a handy FAQ blog outlining our process and how it might look a little different than the typical production. Answers to all your burning questions (and maybe some you didn’t think of yet!) can be found here: 👉 theatreagape.org/blog

This production is designed to celebrate *inclusion, accessibility, and community*. So come as you are, bring your talents, and let’s make a splash together!

We can’t wait to meet our mermaids, sailors, sea creatures, and more.

Love always, *Theatre Agápe Team*
