THEATRE REVIEW: 'The Little Mermaid' offers Off-Broadway fun for the family
Children's theatre company Literally Alive, now in residence at the Players Theatre in New York City, brings another classic piece of literature to life with its current production of "The Little Mermaid." The show opened February 5 and runs through May 22.
Based on the original Hans Christian Andersen story, "The Little Mermaid" is here revised for the stage with original music by Michael Sgouros, and book and lyrics by Brenda Bell. Like its source material, the bittersweet musical explores topics of sacrifice and the human soul. But with a nice balance of seriousness and silliness, "The Little Mermaid" is never out of the depth of its intended (young) audience.
