THE LITTLE MERMAID - First Preview - 11/3/07 — Page 2

Can someone tell me what they were selling at the gift shop. i.e.-dolls, sovenir program etc.
thanks

When are the souvenir programs expected to be released? I'm seeing the show the weekend before Thanksgiving (two weeks from today, actually), and I was hoping that they'd have them for sale by then.

PS - GREAT review, WithoutATrace - you've really rebooted the hope I had for this show. Based on your other reviews, it seems that we have INCREDIBLE similar tastes, so I can stop worrying about not enjoying The Little Mermaid - My FAVORITE Disney movie of all time!

I find it funny that people ignore all the positive things about the show and go straight to panning...

I dont know if you are referring to my review, Future, but I basically wanted to get past the few negatives (for me), and move on to what I liked about the show- (which FAR out-weighed any negatives)

The show does need tinkering (that is what previews are for, right?), but it is still VERY good !

The performaces are top-notch, and Sierra is a shining star, with a capital S.

Sherie is phenomenal in everything she does.

Tituss is a perfect Sebastian !!

Its going to be a hit, no doubt !!!

Okay-- to add to what WAT said about the merchandise. Yep, all children's t's (for girls) and women's (oh, they did have ONE boys shirt (a Flounder shirt)

The lapel pins are nice (especially for collectors- Only $5)

The had a nice keychain, and something else with gems, that I think were earrings.

CD pre-order ($25)
Show poster
Trying to think of others, but I think we have it covered.

Program is supposed to be out in a few weeks. They were taking more pics for it (from what we were told) during the show last night)

Not sure about the Denver run, but the demise of Ursula COULD possibly be more powerful.

The "Under The Sea" (Reprise) during the final curtain was a nice touch- Tituss has PIPES, and it was a great way to end the evening.

Gotcha--- sorry--- !! Personally, I really enjoyed it (sounding like a broken record- sorry) as did WAT.

Dont worry.. despite a blog entry, or whatever else the critics might have probs with, the show (if last night was any indication), is going to be a GIGANTIC SUCCESS !!!

^Try YouTube. Anywhoo, I am going in March to see Mermaid and I hope the small changes can be improved . Overall, sounds great and can't wait to see it!

Do they have a magnet yet?

<< What did the flounder shirt look like?

>>

It basically looked like the costume...lol

T-shirt that read, "I am no guppy" (or something like that)

"Do they have a magnet yet?"

They do have a magnet. It is small and round(about 1.5 inch diameter) with the poster design (drawing of Ariel on the rock) and the shows logo underneath the glass. It's small, but I like it. It cost $5.
