The Ring and the Mermaid in Love

Join A.B.L.E.'s adult ensemble as they share an original collection of stories inspired by some of Shakespeare's famous props.

Whether a treasured gift from a loved one, a symbol of power, or a focus of desire, objects carry meaning. A.B.L.E.’s adult ensemble - 12 actors with Down syndrome and other developmental differences - have imagined 5 original tales inspired by 5 objects from famous Shakespeare stories - a crown, a ring, a lantern, a handkerchief, and a skull. We've turned our tales into a series of downloadable short stories featuring illustrations by the cast, and a create-your-own-story kit so you can get in on the fun!

This week’s story was inspired by THE RING. The Ring and the Mermaid in Love follows a scuba diving chamber maid who encounters bullies and true love.
