CTE Presents: The Little Mermaid Jr.

Grades 2 to 9.

In a magical underwater kingdom, the beautiful young mermaid, Ariel, longs to leave her ocean home — and her fins — behind and live in the world above. But first, she’ll have to defy her father, King Triton, make a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, and convince the handsome Prince Eric that she’s the girl whose enchanting voice he’s been seeking.

Written to flow seamlessly between land and sea, Disney’s The Little Mermaid JR. provides plenty of opportunities to bring these locations to life through creative movement and configurations. The fantasy of being underwater means your entire cast and crew can let their imaginations run wild.

Rehearsals begin September 29th, with the typical rehearsal schedule on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Tech Week will be November 16-18. No absences will be permitted. School-day performances will be Thursday, November 19, and Friday, November 20. Public performances will be Friday, November 20, to Sunday, November 22.

The audition packet with detailed audition requirements is available here and will also be included in your Sawyer confirmation email.
