The Characters

      • Ariel is an independent and determined young mermaid. She spends her days singing, daydreaming, and adventuring with Sebastian and Flounder. She falls for a human named Eric and risks everything for her true love.

      • The seaweed is always greener in somebody else's lake. You dream about going up there, but that is a big mistake. Just look at the world around you, right here on the ocean floor. Such wonderful things surround you. What more is you lookin' for? Up on the shore they work all day, out in the sun they slave away. While we devotin' full time to floatin' under the sea.

      • Ariel's best friend and confidant, Flounder is often anxious about going on adventures. But whenever Ariel’s in trouble, he’s always there to lend a fin.

      • Handsome, witty, intelligent, kind and very brave, Eric is everything you could want in a prince! Just ask Ariel!

      • Evil, repulsive Ursula, the sea witch, is a destroyer of souls.

      • A scruffy seagull who loudly & constantly proclaims himself an expert on humans. The problem is - everything is wrong!

      • Ariel's father and ruler of the Sea, Triton is a dignified figure of authority possessing great pride and poise.
