News Voyage of the Little Mermaid Refurb

Makes me think this is a bit misleading for people and perhaps it’s time to cover it over until the new stage show opens?

The sign has been like that since March 2020 with the theatre vacant. If they were going to cover it up, they would’ve done it then.

If anything it makes more sense to add a "coming soon" tag to the sign.

They will have to swap out the sign now. New show.

Getting rid of the mold would be a good first step

Anyone have an idea of when this is reopening?

 

[Figments Friend]

Sometime in the Autumn , last I was aware.
This may have well changed at this point.

I wonder if Ursula is going to be a puppet or just a screen effect?

It says there will be a live actor & the use of the motion capture, we’ll see how that comes about.

My guess is that Ursula will appear as a screen with a live actor controlling her movements from backstage- but I could also see the same technology being applied to a puppet, so I'm excited to see how it turns out.

Seems redundant.

Just have a live actress onstage or a new puppet/animatronic.
