Reimagined Little Mermaid show coming to Disney World in 2024
“The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure,” a fully reimagined theatrical production inspired by the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic “The Little Mermaid,” will debut in the newly refreshed Animation Courtyard theater at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in fall 2024.
The original show, “Voyage of the Little Mermaid,” shut down in March 2020 when the Walt Disney World Resort closed down due to COVID-19 and it never reopened.
According to Disney, “Disney Live Entertainment has been dreaming up innovative ways to bring new life to the beloved story of Ariel’s journey to be part of the human world.”
Construction inside the theater is well underway, according to Disney, who said it will be sharing more in the coming months.
The show will feature new set pieces, cutting-edge effects, and a bold new design that captures Ariel’s imagination and emotions through her unique view of the world around her, Disney has said.
“The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure” will have musical numbers inspired by the film, including “Part of Your World,” “Poor Unfortunate Souls,” and more.
