Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a beautiful love story for the ages. With music by eight-time Academy Award winner, Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater and a compelling book by Doug Wright, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl” and “Part of Your World.”
Ariel, King Triton’s (Jacob Rocha) youngest daughter (played by Hadley Fitton), wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric (Forest Malo) in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula (Lauren Lima), to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems, and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish (Haley Cabral), Scuttle the seagull (Kallie Rose), and Sebastian the crab (Zac Ferreira), to restore order under the sea.
All cast members are children from the SouthCoast in grades 1-8. Come out and support the children and see the amazing sets, costumes and show!!
