Fort Myers Theatre

Watching an actor walk off stage and immediately reappear in a completely different outfit is one of the most captivating moments in theater. Quick costume changes add a layer of intrigue to any theater production. That’s especially true in a show where 35 actors change costumes dozens of times over the span of a couple of hours. That’s what happens in “The Little Mermaid,” which will be performed by Bishop Verot High School March 19-22.

This week, two shows open, nine close, 13 continue their runs and there is one limited engagement at Southwest Florida equity, community and high school theaters.
