So I was planning on seeing wicked tonight but wound up at The Little Mermaid instead with pretty damn awesome seats. gotta love it.
Can I just say - I love building sets, and watching them work as I've done it for high school/college level productions for the past three years. This set blew me away, I was completely astonished it was possibly the most beautiful set I've seen in a while. Even the transitions between land and sea were just so beautifully done, I was just in awe. This show makes me upset that I am not going into theater when Im older.
Sierra has a beautiful voice that made me tear up at a few points, and she's just cute as a button when she gets her legs.
Palmer was out, I saw Bret. it utterly upset me that a Blonde was playing Eric in the beginning but by end of Act I I was completely over it because he was doing very well for himself. He was very polite at the stage door as well.
Ms. Scott, one word: amazing.
Tituss?! FAN FREAKING TASTIC. He was possibly my favorite thing about the show. He did such a great job in every way.
Brian [Flounder] Such an adorable child, my roommate and I wanted to take him home with us so he could dance around our dorm room in his costume.
Random Notes:
I felt that "I want the Good times back" sung by ursula was quite similar to Applegat'es number in Damn Yankees " good old days"? I think it's called that.
favorite numbers had to be Under the Sea, Positoovity, and I want the good times back.
Few things that bugged me; Lack of dog Max, and Ursula's alter ego Vanessa. I felt both of them in the film aided in moving along Ariel and Eric's relationship - with out them I felt it was kind of awkward how they filled those gaps.
4 and a half Stars.
