Mayfield High spring musical is ‘The Little Mermaid’

Metro Creative Connection

Mayfield High School will be presenting a Disney animated film made into a musical, “The Little Mermaid.”

The production will feature over 50 high school performers and musicians along with over 20 students from Mayfield’s middle and elementary schools.

Performances are at 7 p.m. April 13, 14, 20 and 21, and 2 p.m. April 15 and 22. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for students and seniors and are available in advance at www.mayfieldvocalmusic.org and may be available at the door, day of show (cash only).

A special dinner with the cast will be held following the April 15 show at 5 p.m. Tickets for the dinner are $10 and are available through www.mayfieldvocalmusic.org.

Mayfield’s production of “The Little Mermaid” will be participating in this year’s Dazzle Awards through Cleveland’s Playhouse Square.

“Our entire production team has worked very hard to create a real separation of the two worlds, land and under the sea,” says director Larry Braun. “All of the sets, lighting effects, choreography, and costumes were designed with that in mind. We have taken a different artistic approach to this show by including a children’s chorus of 44 elementary and middle school students (22 each weekend) who are playing various sea creatures. There are over 150 people involved in this production from cast, crew, orchestra, and production staff.”

Mayfield’s production features custom-made puppets, special lighting effects, and many more surprises. Break a leg to the Mayfield community!
