Listen, it's the show you all know and love complete with Ariel, Sebastian, Flounder and the gang. You'll see flying merpeople, sharks that zoom across the stage, and a story to remember!
Ariel, King Triton's youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula, 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, Scuttle the seagull and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.
Whether you first came to The Little Mermaid by way of the original Hans Christian Andersen tale, the classic Disney animated film, or the stage musical adaptation, the story resonates with the same emotional power. Strip the tale of its fantastical elements - mermaids and sea witches and talking crabs - and what’s left is the simple story of a young woman struggling to come into her own.
