Little Mermaid1 (2)

A Disney classic will come to life on the stage as this year’s Summer Challenge group performs The Little Mermaid Junior edition.

Charlotte Mogan plays the lead role of Ariel – a teenage mermaid who wants to know what life is like on the land.

Her older sister Cecilia plays Sebastian the crab, who is Ariel’s advisor.

The sisters say they are big fans of the movie, and have watched it countless times to get ready for their roles. They also found it was easy to work together on the play.

Charlotte says “it’s a lot easier doing scenes with someone you already know because it’s not really as awkward and you feel a little more comfortable to try new things.”

Cecilia adds “you know what you can and can’t do with them. You know their style of humor and their timing, so I to find it easier to work with someone you know.”

The first performance goes tonight (Wednesday) at 7 pm at St. Joseph Scollard Hall.

Tickets are $10 either at the door or at Creative Learning.

Performances run through Saturday.
