The Wreck Bar in Ft. Lauderdale’s Yankee Clipper Hotel featured live mermaids as an attraction from 1956-1962, viewable in the swimming pool through large glass windows behind the bar (you may have seen it in the Billy Crystal/Robert De Niro comedy “Analyze This”).
Now for the first time in 44 years, Marina Duran-Anderson is once-again performing scheduled gigs as a Wreck Bar mermaid. Her YouTube video of a Wreck Bar performance is mesmerizing—one can only image the surprised look on bar patron’s faces as a beautiful mermaid glides past the window.
When not donning fins, Marina performs and teaches dance at multiple venues in south Florida and is available for hire for special events.
