Auditions for Disney’s The Little Mermaid will be held on Saturday, November 15, with callbacks held by invitation only on Saturday, November 22. Signups are available here.
Performance dates for Disney’s The Little Mermaid have been changed to February 19–21, 2026. (Please note the change from previously announced dates.)
Auditioners will need to prepare a 30–60 second song, learn a dance combination to perform in a small group (video will be available with signups), and bring a list of all schedule conflicts between Dec. 1, 2025 and Feb. 21, 2026.
Ages 8 and up may audition, but children ages 14 and younger MUST either have a parent in the cast or have a parent attend rehearsals with them.
Families are encouraged to audition together.
(Note: For auditioning families who also have children younger than 8 years old, a very limited number of these younger children may be cast at a later date if the other family members are cast. These younger children do not need to attend auditions. Instead, please indicate on your audition form if you have younger children you would like us to consider.)
We strongly encourage you to attend auditions in person. However, if you are unable to do so you may send in a video audition. Video auditions are due by 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 8, 2025. Instructions for video auditions are available on the signup page.
The Little Mermaid is being directed by Elizabeth Ellis and choreographed by Brecka Humphreys.
