  3. Disney's The Little Mermaid


Imaginative theatrical magic will delight audiences young and old when PCPAs production of Disneys The Little Mermaid comes to the Marian Theatre, November 7 through December 22.Based on Hans Christian Andersens beloved story and the Disney animated film, The Little Mermaid tells a tale of longing, love and sacrifices, as princess Ariel risks everything to join her prince on land. Meet the majestic King Triton and the malevolent sea witch Ursula, as a host of Ariels undersea friends and enemies battle to rule the future in an adventure that will capture your heart. This magical musical includes such irresistible hits as: Under the Sea, Kiss the Girl, and Part of Your World, along with 10 new songs.Director Melissa Rain Anderson and New York Citys 2 Ring Circus collaborate to bring breathtaking aerial feats to this spectacular holiday production. Anderson calls the play a heros journey. Ariel gives up her family, her home, and even her own bodily form for the chance to become what she knows she truly is. Its finding your true essence and living your life as your most realized self. Ariel proves to be an exceptionally brave creature. Our hero has friends who help her along the way and we see true friendship tested throughout, Anderson said. The director described some of the unique features of this production. We have created a very special show using circus elements to create the world for this incredible journey. We have characters in the air to create a more vertical space for the underwater scenes. There are sailors on ropes, swans and flamingos on hoops in the air, mermaids on silks and several other surprises! We use dancers as water and waves and extensions of Ursulas tentacles. We are creating a fluid dance piece with motion on the ground as well as in the air; set to the lush familiar score we all love from the movie. It is a magical, moving journey for all ages!
Ages: 5 and up / 4 and up for matinees
