The Elyria High School Drama Club and Thespian Troupe 946, in conjunction

In a magical kingdom beneath the sea, the beautiful young mermaid, Ariel,
longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above.

Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories and the
classic animated film, Disney's The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful
love story for the ages. 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 fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible
songs, including "Under the Sea," "Kiss the Girl" and "Part of Your World."

 

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.(MTI Website)
