Synopsis
The Little Mermaid is based on the Academy Award-winning film and the classic fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. In a magical kingdom beneath the sea, a beautiful young mermaid named Ariel longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above. But first, she'll have to defy her father, the king of the sea, escape the clutches of an evil sea witch, and convince a prince that she's the girl with the perfect voice.
With a score composed by eight-time Academy Award-winner Alan Menken and his late partner Howard Ashman, The Little Mermaid will feature the classic songs "Part of Your World," "Kiss the Girl" and the Academy Award-winning Best Original Song, "Under the Sea," as well as nine new songs by Menken and lyricist Glenn Slater. The book for the new musical is by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright Doug Wright.

Review: the little mermaid by sailorkids
last night i sat through the TLM with my family including my teenage daughters and niece, and we were all thoroughly disappointed. although the sets and staging were clever, the choreography was ridiculously juvenile. the actors portraying ursalla, and sebastian were most noteworthy, but the voices of the rest of the ensemble were thin and lackluster- not worthy of a broadway venue. i will think twice before spending the cost of a broadway ticket to see another disney performance.

I grew up with the movie, so I absolutely had to see the play and it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen on a stage! The cast was great and the scenery and costumes were breathtaking. Ive seen a lot of plays and this was definitely my favorite. I want to see it again!

Review: RE: The Little Mermaid by Femina
I have been a Little Mermaid fan ever since I was a child and to see it come to life like this was very impressive.

I just saw TLM for the first time last week and I loved it. Sierra Boggess was born to play Ariel. She really brought the character to life for me. The entire cast was so wonderful. My favorite movie is now my favorite Broadway play. I will definitely be seeing this one again.
