Federal Way’s Friendship Theatre is set to perform “The Little Mermaid” starting at 2 p.m. from June 19-22 and one performance at 2 p.m. on June 22 at Knutzen Family Theatre at the Dumas Bay Centre.
Tickets for the show are $7 for general admission and are available now by calling the Federal way Community Center at 253-835-6900 or 253-835-6935.
According to the city, the Friendship Theatre is sponsored by the city’s Park and Recreation Department and “provides musical theater training and performing experiences for developmentally challenged individuals.”
This is their 13th year, and “The Little Mermaid” follows on the heels of previous performances of “Beauty and the Beast,” “Cinderella,” “Annie” and “Grease.” The group practices from September to June, at which time they unveil their production for the season. More than 40 actors are part of the Friendship Theatre, and the city notes that recent years productions have sold out, so those interested should likely buy their tickets early.
Those interested in knowing more are urged to contact Friendship Theatre director Sharon Boyle at 253-835-6935.
