Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic Disney animated film, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a classic and beautiful love story for the entire family. 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 Broadway gem will capture your heart with its irresistible song favorites, including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl” and “Part of Your World.”

From the moment you step into the theater, this immersive production will make you feel part of Ariel’s world. When she disobeys her father, King Triton, and makes a deal with the evil witch, Ursula, Ariel thinks her dreams have come true. But when the bargain is not what it seems, Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull, and Sebastian the crab to save her true love and restore order under the sea.

Run time is approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes, including one 15 minute intermission.

 The Little Mermaid

Stacey and I were asked by Producing Artistic Director Kyle A. Dougan to co-direct Disney’s THE LITTLE MERMAID. Stacey and I had never met, but we were looking forward to sharing the journey together. Instantly upon meeting on Zoom, we had a chemistry that we knew would work for this piece. Throughout the production journey, we have shared different perspectives on themes and topics, as we are form very different upbringings, just like Eric and Ariel.

Together (with the generous help of Matthew Weidenbener), our experiences brought such rich perspectives and discussions about DISNEY’S THE LITTLE MERMAID — and beyond — that these troublesome times that we live in started to feel hopeful.


We hope that tonight’s play ignites empathy within, and reminds you that at the core, we are all collectively trying to lvoe ourselves, work through fear, find ourselves — and at last, be in our own skin, as the play beautifully quotes.
