Spring Musical at Kent School is Disney’s The Little Mermaid Jr.

Friday May 17th and Saturday May 18th, members of Kent Schools class of 2025 will perform Disney’s The Little Mermaid Jr. The Musical Theater International website describes The Little Mermaid Jr. as, “an enchanting look at the sacrifices we all make for love and acceptance.” Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s stories, The Little Mermaid Jr. takes viewers on an enchanting journey under the sea. “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.”

The class looks forward to embracing their parts through song and dance as they act alongside one another for the first time. Musical Director Matthew Wirtz is confident the students will shine. “Their hard work will show on the stage when they perform in front of an audience. I am proud of what the students have accomplished.”

The performances are open to the public and admission is free. We encourage you to join us.
