Harvey Fierstein & Lea Michele Set for The Little Mermaid at the Hollywood Bowl

A slew of stage alums will go under the sea this spring, in a concert of The Little Mermaid film's score honoring its 30th anniversary. Richard Kraft will direct the two-night event, set for May 17 and 18 at the Hollywood Bowl.

Leading the cast will be four-time Tony winner Harvey Fierstein (Hairspray) as Ursula, Emmy nominee Lea Michele (Glee) as Ariel, Ken Page (Ain't Misbehavin') as Sebastian, Leo Gallo (Westside) as Prince Eric, Cheech Marin (Latinologues) as Chef Louis and Tony nominee Peter Gallagher (On the Twentieth Century) as King Triton.

The company will perform the songs from the score as the film plays on the Hollywood Bowl's movie screen accompanied by a live orchestra. Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken will take the stage to treat the audience to a special encore performance.

The animated film The Little Mermaid was released into cinemas in 1989, boasting a voice cast that included Pat Carroll as Ursula, Jodi Benson as Ariel, Samuel E. Wright as Sebastian and Kenneth Mars as King Triton.

The Broadway-musical adaptation premiered in 2008, led by Sherie Rene Scott as Ursula, Sierra Boggess as Ariel, Tituss Burgess as Sebastian and Norm Lewis as King Triton.

Additional casting for the Hollywood Bowl's Little Mermaid concert will be announced soon.
