At A Glance |
Great show featuring combination
of live action and puppetry. |
The Voyage of the Little Mermaid is a 17-minute
musical show, featuring live actors, along side some well crafted
puppets. It is one of the most popular shows at the Disney MGM
Studios, so there's often quite a queue, but the theatre seats
plenty of people, so a large queue doesn't necessarily mean a
long wait.
Inside the theatre the underwater theming by the Disney
Imagineers is as excellent as ever, and even extends to a "water
curtain" at the very front of the stage. Special effects
throughout the show, including cascading water, lasers, and a
very powerful lightning storm make it one show that really shouldn't
be missed.
Songs from the Little Mermaid film are scattered throughout
the show, along with brief clips from the film to provide background
to the show. Characters like Flounder, Sebastian, and several
others are provided by the skilled puppeters.
NOTE: The best seating position to get the full
effect of both the performance and special effects is towards
the back of the theatre, ideally as close to the middle of a row
as possible.
