About Disney's The Little Mermaid
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.
Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney's The Little Mermaid is a beautiful love story for the ages. With music by eight-time Academy Award winner, Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater and a compelling book by Doug Wright, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs, including "Under the Sea," "Kiss the Girl" and "Part of Your World."
The Old Barn Community Theatre
It was Christmas in 1998 that The Old Barn Community Theatre first opened its doors. The very first production was “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever”. Now it has been over 20 years since that first show. For 22 wonderful years, and in over 100 unique productions, talented individuals, too numerous to count, have donated energy, time and financial assistance to this incredible project.
Our goal, for 22 years, has been to take you to a different time and place with each visit. We have wanted to be a theatre where you could bring your family and for two hours or so, leave "life" behind and travel with us to someplace new. Next to a river, in and Old Barn, in the middle of nowhere, that is sometimes too cold and sometimes too hot and where we always pray the bathrooms will work, we have tried to bring a taste of Broadway - a taste of live theatre to you. We hope you have found our attempts successful.
Now we continue with what we hope will be many more years of fun, laughter, and memories, Wherever our talented directors, actors, and technicians choose to take you - COME ALONG - and enjoy the journey. It wouldn't be nearly as fun without you. We want you to feel that The Old Barn Community Theatre is YOUR theatre. Together, let's see what magic lies ahead.
