Disney didn’t have to look far to find the new Ariel for the lead role in its stage adaption of The Little Mermaid. They found her right in the backyard. The production is workshopping in Denver and Sierra Boggess is a 2000 graduate of Denver’s George Washington High School.
The Little Mermaid will move from Denver to Broadway this fall and will replace Beauty and the Beast in the Disney Theatrical lineup.
