I have to confess that I am not much of a Disney fan, but I enjoyed seeing the wonderfully talented young people perform.  Mounting a complex play, with a clever set ( see the boat move; watch the prince being dragged from the ocean), great lights and effects, fine singing, good acting is always a treat.  Many hands went into the production and it shows through the quality of the entire performance, from program to setting, to acting.  And a good time will be had by all if you go!
