In Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” Prince Eric (Drew Peiffer), his guardian Grimsby (Franklin Whipple), and their sailing crew hear a mysterious yet beautiful voice as they navigate the seas. Under the sea where sea creatures roam free, Ariel (Mackenzie Wright), a mermaid gifted with her mother’s beautiful voice, dreams of a world beyond the sea. When she discovers a fork dropped from the Prince’s ship and a know-it-all seagull (Brooke McClusky) proclaims to be an expert on humans, Ariel is intrigued by humans much to the dismay of her best friend, Flounder (Ben Parnell). Her protective father, King Triton (Aaron Welch), selects a sea crab Sebastian (Brett Phenicie) to keep an eye on her, hoping to squash her interest in humans. Meanwhile, King Triton’s evil sister Ursula (Chloe Carr), who has always been jealous of her brother, uses Ariel’s curiosity as an opportunity to steal her voice. She offers Ariel a spell: she can become human for three days unless she is kissed by the Prince. If the Prince kisses her, she will stay human forever. If she is not kissed and the three days pass, her soul is forever Ursula's. Will Ariel lose her voice to the evil Ursula?
