The Little Mermaid is special as it is about family and more importantly about the love of family. Sometimes out of love for our "family" member we think we know what is best for them without truly listening to their heart and their dreams. This musical reminds us to listen, communicate, not take for granted what we have right in front of us, not to judge someone by the actions of others, and that it does take the help of a village or a world under the sea to raise a child. Whatever your "family" looks like to you, they are the ones who will always be there to support you. Just like in this musical it took the talented Mermaid family to come together to produce a magical KVTA production. People should come enjoy this production because it will put a smile on their face and a warmth in their heart. I hope people come see the talented characters, colorful costumes, amazing sets, creative hair and make-up, fun dances, and beautiful songs with someone they love from their "family" and make an unforgettable memory! – Debbie Emling

Why come to the production of the Little Mermaid? I challenge any single father or dad out there that might have a little girl in his life, to come to this show and not be able to relate or see what the future holds having a daughter. It’s got it ALL! The worry you’ll feel, how much you actually care, and what you would do to protect your baby girl at any cost! But, in the end... it’s the love that a father has for his daughter has no limits to the price he would pay to protect her! Make it a Daddy/Daughter Day because you won’t want to miss The Little Mermaid! - Dave Smith (Single dad)
