Jane Leonard in The Little Mermaid at the Court Theatre Photo: supplied
The story of the Little Mermaid is being retold in a new way at the Court Theatre these school holidays. Playwright Allison Horsley has intertwined the Māori myth Pania of the Reef with Hans Christian Andersen’s story to create something with a uniquely New Zealand flavour. It features original music performed by three actors, including Jane Leonard.
