Most people think that 'Tarzan' is a love story between Jane Porter, a young artist, and Tarzan, a jungle man. But if one would look closely into the story, 'Tarzan,' the Broadway musical, directed by Chari Arespacochaga, is really about love that transcends into another world.

By Disney standards the year and a half run of the original Broadway production of The Little Mermaid was a bit of a disappointment.  In theory, a competently created musical based on the hit animated film would probably run for a year and a half based on the title recognition alone.  My opinion of that show was higher than most of my colleagues.  I enjoyed it, but mostly for the vaudevillian pleasure of seeing a cast of terrific Broadway performers each getting a star turn or two.  But after some script revisions and a whole new visual concept, director Glenn Casale's production of the new Mermaid that just opened at Paper Mill is a well-crafted, delightfully designed and performed charmer.
