MEYER PERFORMING ARTS
‘Little Mermaid’ entertains; new musical this summer
By PAYTON RIGERT
News intern
Recently, the Meyer Pre-
forming Arts Studio put
on a production of Dis-
ney’s “The Little Mer-
maid Junior,” directed
and choreographed by
son-and-mother team
Teddy Meyer and Re-
bekah Meyer.
The production went on
for four days and rotated
casts each time. The age
groups ranged from sec-
ond grade to eighth grade
and the production began
on Tuesday with the sec-
ond and third grade cast.
The actors did a fantas-
tic job with the musical
numbers and the choreo-
graphed dance moves.
There were individual
numbers, such as Ariel’s
song, “Par t of Your
World,” and large group
performances to the clas-
sic song “Under the Sea.”
T he costumes were
beautiful and enhanced
the performance. Laugh-
ter filled the auditorium
throughout the perfor-
mance, but even the tod-
dlers in the audience were
held captive when each of
the Arial’s got up to sing
their soulful songs.
■
If you would like to get
your child involved in a
summer workshop, Meyer
Preforming Arts Studio
will be preforming their
first production of
“Mulan the Musical.”
There will be new songs
plus the classics.
The workshops start
June 29 and end July 10,
with a show in Jackson
Park.
