Disney's "The Little Mermaid" starts November 18


Atlantis Production will showcase Disney's "The Little Mermaid" this November 18 to December 11, 2011 at the Meralco Theater in Ortigas Ave., Pasig City. "The Little Mermaid" is based on the Hans Christian Andersen story and Disney film.

Music by: Alen Menken
Lyrics by: Howard Ashman & Glenn Slater
Book by: Doug Wright

Some of Disney’s most popular songs are featured in the show, including "Part of Your World," "Kiss the Girl" and the Academy Award-winning Best Original Song, "Under the Sea."


Rachelle Ann Go and Erik Santos make their professional musical theater stage debut as Ariel and Prince Eric in Atlantis' production, jointly directed by Bobby Garcia and Chari Arespacochaga.

Other cast members include Jinky Llamanzares as Ursula, Calvin Millado as Triton and OJ Mariano as Sebastian.

"We are creating a 'Little Mermaid' unlike any other. It will be an exciting fusion of East meets West elements. Our underwater kingdom will be completely Asian in theme and our above water world will be Western, representing two different worlds. We will also be using traditional forms of Asian and Western puppetry including Wayang shadow play, bunraku, nang kaloung and western hand puppetry," says Garcia.

Vocal coaching by ManMan Angsico, choreography by Cecile Martinez, puppetry design and execution by Liz and Benny Batoctoy and Sam Fuentes, set design by Lex Marcos, costume design by Erik Pineda and lighting design by Jay Aranda.

I got a message from my old show ticket distributor about this and I was thinking of watching it but I don't know...this is my favorite disney movie and I also love/hate the original book. Perhaps another time.
