The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure is an upcoming musical stage production at Disney's Hollywood Studios. It is a fully reimagined theatrical production inspired by the 1989 Disney animated feature film The Little Mermaid, replacing the classic Voyage of the Little Mermaid which performed almost three decades.
History[edit]
Following the permanent closure of the classic long-running Voyage of the Little Mermaid show on March 15, 2020, due to the negative effects of the pandemic, it was announced on December 19, 2023, that the show would be replaced by a reimagined show inspired by the franchise in the newly refreshed Animation Courtyard theater at Disney's Hollywood Studios. It was also said that the show would feature new visual innovative plans to completely reimagine the show telling the story of Ariel longing to be part of the human world. In addition to including the "Kiss the Girl" song as seen through concept art, it was also announced that the show would include songs from the film such as "Part of Your World" and "Poor Unfortunate Souls" with an opening date scheduled for fall 2024.[1]
