The Mermaid, The Otter and the Big Poo

Children's theatre show based on popular children's book about saving our rivers

Can your eco warriors help save the mermaid's river and find her best friend, Otter?

The popular children's book The Mermaid, the Otter and the Big Poo is now a show. It's performed at Glastonbury, Edinburgh Fringe and schools across the country....It's now coming to the Trinity Centre this half term and you can be in it.

With improv, songs and audience participation, The Mermaid, the Otter and the Big Poo is an interactive show based on a real life story. Yes, it really is! Author and real life mermaid Lindsey Cole, swam the length of the Bristol Avon with her big poo, to investigate how sewage pollution affects wildlife like otters. Lindsey will tell you all about it before the show starts.

Tell your little eco warrior friends. Learn about otters, be part of the show and get inspired about saving our rivers whilst having fun.

Photos and books: You'll have an opportunity to get a photo with the mermaid at the end of the show and buy a signed book.

Please do book your tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. In the unlikely event that the show will be cancelled you will receive a refund. Please check your emails on the morning before the show.

About Lindsey

Adventurer Lindsey was devasted after realising she was surroundded by more plastic than fish after cutting her hand on a sharp piece whilst freediving in Bali. She spooled through instagram and discovered some freedivers wear monofins and mermaid tails. So she returned back to the UK to swim the length of the Thames in a mermaid tail, towing a mermaid sculpture made from upcycled plastic bottles to raise awareness. Along the way she rescued a drowning cow and made Page 3 of a national tabloid- fully wetsuited! A school turned her story into their school play. It was adorable so Lindsey turned her story into a kids book- The Mermaid and the Cow. Now, she mermaids with a big poo.

Last year, Lindsey mermaided from Wales to England, across the Bristol Channel with her big poo and she's currently training to break the Guinness World Record for longest distance swum in a monofin. Monofinning is much harder than you think. You can hear all about if you come to the show.
