Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID Added to Orpheum Broadway Season

The Orpheum Theatre Group is excited to announce that a one-week engagement of Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID has been added to its 2016-2017 Broadway Season, playing July 25-30, 2017. With the addition of this live musical production, new subscribers can now customize a series with a Pick 4 season ticket package option.

"Even though we announced our Broadway season in March, I could not pass up this theatrical production of one of Disney's most beloved films when it came along," said Brett Batterson, President & CEO. "This is a perfect show for those who grew up with the film or who want to introduce their kids to the theatre by way of this classic story."

Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID is produced by Pittsburgh CLO & Kansas City Starlight and will play at the Orpheum Theatre July 25-30, 2017. In a magical kingdom beneath the sea, the beautiful young mermaid Ariel longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above. Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen's most beloved stories, with music by eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken, it's a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. Come fall in love with the magic for the first time-or all over again with classics such as "Under the Sea," "Kiss the Girl, "Part of Your World" and more!

Beginning September 6th, new subscribers can customize their series with a Pick 4 season package. In addition to Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID, options include JERSEY BOYS, ANNIE, THE BODYGUARD, BEAUTIFUL - The Carole King Musical, THE SOUND OF MUSIC, and a special weekend-only engagement of the RENT 20th Anniversary Tour. DIRTY DANCING - The Classic Story On Stage may be added to a package prior to September 13th. Full five-show packages are still available and offer a 20% savings on single tickets. Single tickets for individual shows will be available at a later date.

"This Pick 4 season package structure allows new subscribers to create a series that best reflects their interests," said Batterson. "We are excited to offer our subscribers the flexibility to curate the perfect season and take advantage of the great benefits that being a season ticket holder provides."

Season ticket holders enjoy many subscriber benefits such as ticket exchange and resale opportunities, a Subscriber Perks Card, which provides patrons with discounts to the Orpheum's VIP Partner businesses, optional pre-paid discounted parking, and exclusive pre-sale opportunities for special engagements presented by the Orpheum.
