Jointly produced by Chinese and Danish artists, the children's play "The Little Mermaid" will be performed at the National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA) from Jan. 28 to 30, 2020.

The play is based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale of the same name, telling the story of a little mermaid who yearns for love and defeats the evil witch with courage and wisdom.

As part of Andersen's lesser-known talent, paper-cutting was also integrated into the stage design, aiming to better present the story of loving and giving to its audiences.

Combining humor and body movements, the play retains the original plot and looks to convey the main character's adventurous spirit and faith in love, according to the NCPA.
