The Little Mermaid
Set under and above the high seas, The Little Mermaid tells the story of Ariel, an adventurous young mermaid who’s got a thing for disobeying the rules and following her heart. Ariel’s fascination with the human world often leads her to the sea surface, a zone that’s designated as “off-limits” by her father Triton, the sea king. One day while sneaking to the surface, Ariel witnesses a shipwreck and rescues Prince Eric, with whom she become instantly smitten. Furious at Triton’s inability to understand her love for the prince, Ariel runs away and strikes a deal with Ursula, Triton’s evil witch of a sister, to experience the life she dreams of on land.
Based on the classic Disney animated feature, The Little Mermaid is a big-budget extravaganza featuring bright, high-tech sets and dazzling costumes. The scenery alternates between the ocean surface and down “Under the Sea,” as the popular song goes. As with any Disney show, the production values are way above average. An old-fashioned romantic adventure, the show compliments all the songs you remember from the movie with new ones written by Oscar-winning Disney tunesmith Alan Menken. Those with edgier tastes may disapprove, but The Little Mermaid is top-notch family fare!
