Yes, I saw JJ on November 3rd at the first preview and thought he was great. I saw Cody Hanford on November 29th and thought he was ok...

Singleton does have more experience, but seriously....with a role that size, no one is going to leave the show talking about howgood (or bad) the kid who played Flounder was.

Do the Flounders have a set performance schedule?

If they do, it's not listed in the Playbill or anywhere else that I can see. It just says, "Flounder at certain performances" for both of them.

I would guess at some point they would set a schedule.

Someone who seems really interested in the Flounders is trying to start a lasting thread on the subject...

"Ursula still does the same now, except she's not as obvious with wanting the shell to save her life. Her death is a lot more dramatic than it was, too.

There aren't any really big changes to be honest. A couple of costumes have been re-designed, and I Want the Good Times Back now features more eels, but nothing really major has changed."

So what happens with her death now? Because when I saw it(the first preview in Denver) it was just Ariel smashing the shell, then Flotsam & Jetsam kinda wheeled her away...What all did they change there?

And...What do you mean "I Want the Good Times Back now features more eels?" Does that mean more of Flotsam & Jetsam (I'm hoping it's that one) or are there more eels than just those two?

^
There are about three "ensemble eels" with different costumes than Flotsom and Jetsom.

They did a lot of changes to the end, including Ursula going through a trap door to her demise instead of being wheeled away.

Let's face it- this show will either connect with its target audiences (families) or it won't...A pan from the NYT won't necessarily kill this show.

I bet that it does well.

Apparently Cody called out tonight so JJ went on again. Would this change their schedule for the week?

And I've seen both and I think I prefer Cody. JJ has a great voice but his acting does not come across. Cody isn't the best actor either, but they're kids and he does a great job and his singing is pretty good, just not my favorite. But overall, I'd pick Cody.
