Synopsis
When Surpia, the Sorceress, invades the fabulous undersea kingdom of Atlantis, she is annoyed to find that the baby Princess Coral has been taken away to safety. After searching for twenty years, she finds her in the seaside village of Portaloo, where Coral has been adopted by Florrie Flotsam as her daughter, Faye.
After Surpia discovers that Faye is actually Princess Coral she spirits her back to Atlantis. Florrie and her family, together with the handsome Lord Valentine (who has fallen in love with Faye) and Captain Capstan, set sail to rescue her.
Surpia uses all her evil powers to thwart them: storms at sea, killer sharks, and Kraken, a terrifying sea monster, but somehow the motley crew manage to evade these perils, are then re-united with Faye, and through some clever positioning involving Surpia standing too near to the Kraken's cave, she is despatched by a large tentacle or two, and is never seen again (except in the curtain calls!).
A fantasy adventure story, full of thrills, laughter and songs. |
