During a media event on Monday, Walt Disney World shared new concept art and details about “The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure.” The new show replaces “Voyage of The Little Mermaid” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
‘The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure’
The show will include all the songs that were previously in “Voyage of The Little Mermaid,” as well as “Kiss The Girl” and “Daughters of Triton.”
The show will have all new puppets, as well as live and digital characters.
Disney was hiring character performers and puppeteers for the show earlier this year.
Disney used motion capture for the characters who will appear digitally, including a “larger than life Ursula.” Ursula will also appear live on stage.
There will be a battle sequence at the end of the show.
“The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure” will open in the refreshed Animation Courtyard theater later this year (Disney previously said in the fall). “Voyage of The Little Mermaid” never reopened following the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020. Watch our video of the old show below.
