A LOT of exciting new things are coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure
First, a brand-new Monsters, INC. land is on the way. THEN, the Muppets will be taking over Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster. The park is also getting two BRAND NEW SHOWS, including Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After (which we recently got a preview of in Disney World) and The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure, with both shows opening on May 27th. Well, Disney World recently dropped some NEW photos of the Little Mermaid show!
The Little Mermaid — A Musical Adventure will be a retelling of Ariel’s story from the animated The Little Mermaid movie. Expect to see a lot of familiar faces, including Ariel, Prince Eric, Max, Flounder, Sebastian, Ursula, and more. Disney even recently confirmed that Ariel’s sisters will also appear in the show. Now, let’s take a look at some of the photos Disney just dropped for the show. So here’s the “Under The Sea” number:

Okay, first, we are SHOCKED because this looks almost EXACTLY like the concept art for the show Disney released for the number:

Um…Disney, YOU NAILED IT. The show will use a combination of digital effects and puppets to bring Ariel’s story to life. Here’s another photo Disney just released of “Kiss The Girl,” which is making its debut in the new show (the previous Little Mermaid show in Hollywood Studios didn’t have it!).

Here’s a closer look at Ariel and her costume, as well as Flounder. look at this stuff…isn’t it neat?

We also got a sneak peek of Ariel’s scene with Ursula when she gives up her voice for legs. Ursula is looking pretty terrifying here.

While the puppetry is neat and I like the design changes plus the addition of Kiss the Girl, I really don’t like Ariel’s costume in the new show. The center of the tail is baggy and too high for a normal mermaid tail. I liked the old show’s mermaid costume, it made the actresses look like Ariel and not a cheap Party City Ariel.
This show is sold out? Do you have to pay to see this show?
Devon….. I agree about the costume, doesn’t look good. My favorite part is the scene with Kiss the Girl.
