Explore the mysterious fathoms below in Disney’s The Little Mermaid KIDS! Adapted from the beloved animated film and Broadway production, this shortened stage musical gives young performers the opportunity to bring Ariel, Sebastian, Flounder, Ursula and the colorful inhabitants of the undersea kingdom to life.
Young mermaid Ariel longs to leave her father’s underwater kingdom and discover the human world above. When she makes a dangerous bargain with the sea witch Ursula, Ariel trades her beautiful voice for the chance to walk on land. She soon learns that Ursula’s offer is not what it seems.

Featuring memorable characters, colorful ensemble opportunities and songs generations of families already love, The Little Mermaid KIDS is an enchanting musical about friendship, acceptance and finding your true voice.
