Tessa Bide Productions

It’s time to hear the Moon’s story, one you will NEVER forget…

Gather round for the Moon’s magical story about a tippetty-top tap dancer who he has been watching at night. Marina Skippett creeps out of her house every night to shuffle and stomp on the boardwalk to the sounds of the sea. She can’t tap dance at home any more since her evil, tractor-sized Aunty banned it! But then, one moonlit night, Marina meets a mysterious, watery boy swimming in the sea and her life is never the same again!

The “truly amazing one woman power house” (Guide 2 Bristol) Tessa Bide is returning with her solo show, heralded “just everything a children’s theatre experience should be” (Childplays) to celebrate it’s 10 year anniversary. Featuring stunning puppets, original live music and tap dancing that will make you want to stick 50ps to your shoes and join in! “The Tap Dancing Mermaid is the perfect example of a show where the adults are just as enthralled as the kids.” A Younger Theatre
