Halifax Light Opera Juniors present THE LITTLE MERMAID Jr

This classic Disney title contains all of the songs from the Academy Award® winning animated feature film as well as three new songs from the Broadway show.

THE LITTLE MERMAID JR. takes place in a magical kingdom beneath the sea, where a beautiful young mermaid named Ariel longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above. But first, she’ll have to defy her father, the king of the sea, escape the clutches of an evil sea witch and convince a prince that she’s the girl with the perfect voice.

The Halifax Light Opera Society Juniors have charmed audiences for over 50 years and look forward to taking you on an adventure “Under the Sea”!
