““The Little Mermaid” is Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved and well-known fairy tale, which is why it’s not the story we are going to tell you. No, no way,” according to the play’s logline. “We’re going to tell you the story about a Little Rain Cloud who falls in love with a human. They are not the same story at all, we promise!” This play features some mature language and is best suited for viewers 14 and up.
The talented student cast features Dom Hernandez as Dolan, Cynthia Acevedo as Rain Cloud, Dario Rojas as Ralmond, Dinia Hernandez as Midi, Josiah Roberson as Edvard, Luana Costa Baptista as Ina, Jane Aversa as Bessie and Vic Bewley as Little One.
The production team includes Cynthia Acevedo, Karma Bakr, Steven Belskie, Lawrence Blamah Jr., Erik Butler, Renato Cavaca, Nate Cohen, Brianna Corsello, Raine Davis, Abbie Delfiner, Nick Feuchtmayer, Opal Goodwin, Alicia Gushue, Dominic Hernandez, Leo Inzerillo, Haven Kortz, Ryan Luce, Keith Merritt, Hunter Palmer, Hillary Plunkett, Dennis Trowbridge and Alex Voss.
The student performances are part of MCCC’s Montco Cultural Center, which encompasses interrelated creative spaces where ideas, artistry, and community converge. Spanning both the Blue Bell and Pottstown campuses, the Montco Cultural Center includes fine art galleries and intimate theaters to showcase the arts in unique and innovative ways.
