After an 18-year wait, Disney’s THE LITTLE MERMAID has finally made it to
Broadway. And being a Disney production, audience goers have a guarantee of a
few things: breath-taking costumes, creative choreography, catchy music that you
can’t get out of your head, and entertainment with a gentle message. This
musical does not disappoint. Mermaid Ariel (Sierra Boggess) has fallen in
love with a human prince (Sean Palmer). In defiance of her father (Norm
Lewis), she makes a deal with the devil or in this case her aunt, the
amusingly menacing Sherie Rene Scott so that she can be with the human of
her dreams. Tituss Burgess as a hysterical cohort crab and Brian
D’Addario as the precious Flounder head up a multi-talented cast.
No matter what your age, THE LITTLE MERMAID is going to delight and
astound as only a Disney production can do. Give yourself a treat and go see it.
