"The 1989 Walt Disney film The Little Mermaid was a landmark for Walt Disney Animation Studios. Its success was largely due to the infectious, Oscar-winning score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman. Arizona Broadway Theatre presented the Arizona professional premiere of the stage adaptation in 2015 and has now brought this family friendly show back again in a lively, colorful production with a wonderful cast and rich, creative elements....Jasmine Bassham is wonderful as Ariel. Her clear, warm voice shines on Ariel's many songs and her realistic performance gives depth and meaning to Ariel's fascination with the human world. Lynzee Foreman is having a blast playing Ursula. Foreman's fantastic stage presence and brassy and powerful singing voice create a character the audience loves to hate. ...Renee Kathleen Koher has appeared in many ABT shows and makes her main stage ABT directorial debut with Little Mermaid. Her direction achieves warm, comical performances from the entire cast while ensuring the more serious parts of the show shine through.
