Location: Animation Courtyard

Description: This 17-minute “show” has all sorts of different effects: live action, puppetry, and even some film footage.  The story of The Little Mermaid is retold like never before! Unlike a lot of other shows in Disney Parks you can Fast Pass this show, just take note of your return time because the window is significantly smaller than other FP attractions! Also, if you can grab a seat in the middle of a row towards the middle of the theatre you will have the best views (although you will enjoy the show no matter where you are)!

Average Wait Times: While this show is often walk in depending on weather and crowds it can get very lengthy in waits so be aware when you head over! This may be a good FP to hit first thing when you enter the area.  By the time you head over to Animation Academy and Disney Junior you will be able to come back and enjoy the show!
