Æ Junior Review by Frida aged 7
Nessie is a musical about finding where you belong.
It has Nessa who is the main character and she is a sea creature, and a little girl called Mara. There is an otter and a bird too. They all live in the loch together.

I really liked it when Nessa was under the sea and she was upset and sang a song. Her skin lit up and I liked the bubbles.
That was my favourite part when Nessa glowed in the dark, and the sea glowed too, and Nessa sang – that is what really stuck in my head.

The only thing that would make it better would be more scenery and set.
I think this show is for age 7 and over.
I think you should go and see this show because it’s wonderful.
