The Little Mermaid was HUGE!

I don’t know how Mr DeLuca does it.  His team manages to get bigger and better each year.  Not only was the cast and crew over 175 students, the costumes and scenery were incredible!!   There was so much to see I had a feeling I was missing things.  The whole play is based on the premise of Ariel’s beautiful voice- newcomer Isabella Posada did not disappoint.  WOW!  Equally impressive were Josie Jones as Sebastian and Stephanie Toms as Ursula. Robert Shevlin’s  (and the gulls) “Human Stuff” was one of my favorite scenes.  Miquel Velasquez (Eric), Annemarie Patalano (Flounder) and Samantha Trested (Chef Louise) also stole scenes.  All of the supporting ensemble were fantastic.  The Sisters, lagoon animals, Ursula’s tentacles, Sailors, princesses (and their lovely voices), Flotsam and Jetsam, Grimsby, ALL added so much to the show. Kudos to Mr. Owens, Mr Goldman, Mrs. Peters, Ms. Buongiovanni , Mr. Carreras and Mr. Tunkel.  Special shout out to all of the “Drama Mamas”- the show doesn’t go on without you!
