Saint John’s Prep Theatre Department is proud to present Disney’s The Little Mermaid March 29-30 and April 3-5 at the Gorecki Family Theatre in the Benedicta Arts Center on the campus of the College of Saint Benedict.

Ariel, King Triton’s youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above, bargaining with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems, and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends, Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.
This production of Disney’s The Little Mermaid feature fantastic costumes, aerial choreography, heartwarming music and charming humor. You won’t want to miss this show that the whole family will enjoy!
