Ariel, the heroine of our story, is a little mermaid who longs to be human. Looking for a strong singer and dynamic performer for this role. Ariel has some beautiful solos but must be able to convey meaning through gesture once she loses her voice.
Prince Eric is the adventurous prince who captures Ariel's heart. Looking for a charming performer with a sensitive nature.
Sebastian is the meticulous and anxious crab who tries to keep Ariel safe while getting to lead some of the most memorable songs in the show! Looking for a strong singer who can also handle Sebastian's emotional range. Sebastian can be played by a boy or girl.
Flounder is Ariel's sincere and sensitive best friend who is loyal to the end. This spunky fish also has a show-stopping solo in "She's in Love." Flounder can be cast with a girl or a boy with an unchanged voice. This may be a wonderful role for a younger performer who is ready to take the next step into the spotlight.
