The Little Mermaid Comes to Life at Richmond Civic Theatre

Get ready for an underwater adventure as Disney's beloved classic, little mermaid civic, splashes its way onto the stage at Richmond Civic Theatre (RCT) this August. The musical production, directed by Tammy Cornell and featuring music direction from Alison Moore, promises to transport audiences to the whimsical world of Ariel, a young mermaid with a passion for life above the waves.

Based on the 1989 animated film and May's live-action adaptation, little mermaid civic tells the story of Ariel's journey as she falls in love with Prince Eric and makes a deal with the sea witch Ursula to trade her voice for a pair of legs. But when Ursula's true intentions are revealed, Ariel must rely on her friends Flounder, Scuttle, and Sebastian to help her restore order under the sea.

To bring this magical tale to life, RCT has assembled a talented cast of actors, singers, and dancers who will take to the stage for three weekends in August. The production is part of RCT's 2023 season, which includes a range of other shows, including 'Seussical the Musical Jr.' and 'Rent'.

In addition to its mainstage productions, RCT offers several ways for audiences to engage with the theatre, including its Stage Fright II Halloween party in October and Storybook Café breakfast next March. The theatre also produces a series of radio shows that can be heard on WECI 91.5FM.
