From the Tony Award-winning songwriting team that brought you Seussical and Ragtime, comes this Tony nominated, Olivier Award-winning musical set in the Caribbean Sea concerning a peasant girl on a tropical island, who uses the power of love to bring together people of different social classes. From the first song you will be enthralled by the music and engaging lyrics of this magical story which includes hints of Romeo and Juliet and the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, The Little Mermaid.
