Artisan Center Theater presents: The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid

Through May 12 at Artisan Center Theater, located at 444 E. Pipeline Road in Hurst

Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. This fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl” and “Part of Your World.”

Ariel, King Triton’s youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems, and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.

Music by Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater, book by Doug Wright — all based on the Hans Christian Andersen story and the following Disney film.
