Antwerp High School is excited to present the musical Disney’s The Little Mermaid on March 11 and 12, 2016, at 7:00 p.m. and March 13, 2016, at 2:00 p.m. in the Antwerp Local School Auditeria.
Ariel is dissatisfied with life under the sea and curious about the human world. Her father, King Triton, and Sebastian the crab warn her that contact between merpeople and humans is forbidden, but Ariel still longs to be part of the human world and ignores their warnings. One day, Ariel, Flounder and Sebastian travel to the ocean surface and see Prince Eric, with whom Ariel falls in love. A pair of eels, Flotsam and Jetsam, convince a crying Ariel that she must visit Ursula the sea witch, if she wants all of her dreams to come true. Ursula makes a deal with Ariel to transform her into a human for three days. Within these three days, Ariel must receive the “kiss of true love” from Eric; otherwise, she will transform back into a mermaid on the third day and belong to Ursula. As payment for legs, Ariel has to give up her voice. Will Ariel ever find true love and get back her voice? Come to the show to find out.
