  • DAMN That Sean Palmer actually looks like Eric. Especially his haair.

  • Wait.. King Triton is black even tho Ariel is white??

  • "God, please let me scare the children." XD That's hilarious, and she said it in the most serious. way.

  • Can anyone tell me if the musical is still played and if yes where? And does someone know if Sierra Boggess will sing that role somewhere again? Thanks for the info!

  • LITTLE MERMAID ROCKS! It's my favorite Disney Movie eventhough I'm a guy!

  • @jvfunn3000 Nothing wrong with taht. I'm a dude, and I LOVE The Little Mermaid!

  • you know whats funny ive seen every interview for the musical and they never interview the eels i like them a lot to. they are funny!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @ChiChiGold I was wondering that too! I found one were they were really, really funny! Why not interview ursula's singing pet electric eels?

  • Sherri Rene Scott is so rude...we went to stage door after the show and EVERYONE from the cast came by and took pics with us except her...

  • @emmy054321 i hate it when people do that, at phantom of the opera stage door gina beck totally ignored us, it just wrecks the experience

  • god, please let me scare the children

  • eric is sexy

  • "god, please let me scare the children" XD lol, she just sounds like a great person

  • Sierra Boggess is so gorgeous! I love her singing too and I just melt when I see her in her Ariel costume. She also sounds a good deal like Jodi Benson did. Really want to see this.

  • I saw this on Broadway with another Ursula --' I liked her a lot

  • awesome casting!

  • "please let me scare the children". LOL. omg, she is TOTALLY the BEST. i LOVE her portrayal of Ursula. it's the 1st time i've ever wanted to be the villain.

  • i met Norm Lewis at the stage door!! he still had sparkles on him from the show and my sister pointed it out to him because we were so giddy and he kind of glared at us, lol

  • I met Norm Lewis when he came to my college to give a talk and performance!!!!! He is sooo nice, and he told me I was beautiful and gave me a hug!!!!! You are soooo lucky you saw him in the Little Mermaid!!!!!!!

  • sean palmers good!! his speaking voice sounds different then his regular but hes really good!! AMAZING<3

  • Oh yeah that's christian praying to scare kids. Ursula never needed any help scaring anyone, friggin Paulians.

  • Broadway's Little Mermaid to End Aug. 30; National Tour Planned.

    Disney's lavish Broadway musical, The Little Mermaid, will end Aug. 30 at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre, but the producer is sending her to wider waters. A national tour will launch in fall 2010.

    There is talk that the Lunt-Fontanne will be the home of the new musical The Addams Family in early 2010, but that couldn't be confirmed.

    The Little Mermaid will have played 50 previews and 685 performances by the time it closes.

  • Alan Menken is seriously my hero for writing so many amazing songs. I mean, think about his works for cryin out loud! Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Pocahontas (I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that to be the next Broadway-ized Disney classic), just to name a few. If I ever encountered him I would kiss his feet. Lol okay not really, but he is that incredible.

  • I totally agree with you.

  • KelsyPants08: I sooo agree with you.

  • I dont' know. But this better be or else.!

  • LONG LIVE ALAN MENKEN

  • AGREE!!!

  • The Little Mermaid has been my all time favourite movie since I was 3 years old. It is still number one in my heart. I cried when I found out it was becoming a broadway musical I was so excited. Watching these few clips has made my heart glow with excitement and too see how amazing the production is just makes me extatic beyond words. Thank you to the producer and directors for making this such a gift to the world!!

  • megt123: No, you simply cannot be serious. WHO'S a family freind of yours? You can't be serious.

  • god, please let me scare the children lol

    I really want to see this!

  • im seeing it june 21st lol!

  • does anyone know whether this is coming to the west end? Beauty and the Beast never did come to us and so I'm slightly worried that I may never get to see this without travelling to Broadway! :(

  • Really? But it toured in the UK, right?

  • I am going to see this asap i've always loved the little mermaid

  • I saw this musical on Broadway last week, & it totally blew me away. I was in tears at the end, it is so fantastically staged, & Ariel is outstanding. Having grown up with the Little Mermaid I think it made it more magical..but wow..I would highly recommend this show..it's out of this world ;-)

  • AHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHA 2:07-2:15!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAH love it!

  • if only i could get to new york to see this amazing show...DAMN THAT ATLANTIC OCEAN!

  • I saw this earlier this month and the show was freaking awesome!!!

  • I saw this show last saturday and I have to say, "Wow." I am a huge broadway fan and it takes a lot for a show to impress me, but this one did. The use of color and the overall staging of the show was amazing. I highly recommend it for anyone to see. LOVED IT!

  • that woman's a lil bit too pretty to play ursula

  • i saw this is it was so good. i wish they interviewed on the kids who played Flounder. Everyone i recamend you see Little Mermaid it was amazinggg

  • I want to see this show so much just to see Sherie Rene Scott! But my parents probably won't drive me all the way to NYC to see another musical since we were there less than a month ago :( Hopefully Sherie will still be in the cast next year or whenever I get around to going. Anyone know when her contract expires?

  • I get to see this on thursday :):):)

  • oh my god; i love disney...only they would think to put mermaids in heelies

  • took my wife to see it last night, the show is Excellent!!!

  • God please let me scare the children. Lmao. sherie stole the entire show

  • lol, Sean Palmer and a sparkly unitard? He is SO much like this amazing kid from school, it's almost scary!

  • The show is a really good interpretation but don't expect the stage version of the movie...there are some changes but over all the actors are amazing...Sierra is so sweet...go to stage door right after if you can she only signs a few autographs before leaving...i was lucky enough to get one.

  • I would LOVE to see this on Broadway! I love Sherie Rene Scott from playing Amneris in Aida, this guy playing Prince Eric is cute, and Sierra Boggess is so pretty and sweet and has such a gorgeous, powerful voice! Oh and Titus playing Sebastian is an incredible tenor! GRRRR I WANNA SEE THIS SHOW!!!!!!

  • Lucky! I'm going to Boston with my choir over spring break...Boston rocks but I'd SOOO rather go to Broadway to see this!!!

  • I totally saw this at the Pre-Broadway engagement and when Sherie Renee Scott sang "I Want the Good Times Back" I almpst peed my pants. She's so amazing.

    PS Norm Lewis is a fox. Completely. Even though he's 45 I would still marry him. Mmmm King Triton.... haha.

    Oh, and Sierra Boggess is from right here in Colorado! YES! People DO escape this place!

  • Omigoodness I saw this at the Pre-Broadway engagement and it was SO good.... When Sherie Renee Scott came on and sand "I Want the Good Times Back" I almost peed my pants. It was so amazing.

    And Norm Lewis is a complete and utter fox. I don't care if he's 45, I would still marry him. Mmmmmmm King Triton. Haha.

  • The scare the little children thing she said in another interview once before. lol and Im going to see the show this spring break in new york!! I'M SO FREAKING EXCITED!!!!!

    "Every night I say a prayer. I say 'God please let me scare the children.'"

    lol...

  • ha, prince eric is definitely gay!

  • how do u know? because he wore leotards in high school as a fish? he was just saying....

  • that girl that plays Ursula...she prays to SCARE kids??? I know the Ursula is supposed to be scary but that's ridiculous!

  • I think she was kidding

  • well whatever... she would've laughed if she was kidding....and she ain't laughing

  • Just before they cut away from her, you can see her start to smile.

  • Ursula's role is to scare the kids.. not to an extreame extent though but just enough to be a little scared. I think she achieved that. =].

  • "that girl" is sherie renee-scott... she is amazing, i saw her in Aida as Amneris and she rocked!

  • I saw this, FRONT ROW CENTER on saturday!!!!!! amazing amazing amazing!! the music and the effects were great!!!!! its not so "adult" as other broadway plays but its PERFECT

  • really? wow!!

  • yussss, you'll be amazed how they did it. I love it

  • thats good! I've always wanted to see it and i luv the little mermaid even though i m a little to old 4 it =]
