I don't know where photos of it are, but the Disney Parks did a whole "Little Mermaid" black light show with puppets. There was one based on Lion King too I think (different than the Broadway musical).

You mean "Voyage of the Little Mermaid"?

Is this one what you're talking about? I never knew it was a blacklight show...

I'm not sure. I met the designer who did the show I am thinking of when I was doing black light in Toronto around `97 or `98. He was up there visiting relatives and heard about the show I was in and decided to check it out.

Has this show been going that long?

I've seen it several times and if I remember correctly there are a lot of black light effects... not to mention bubbles and water falling from the ceiling.

The first time was probably in 1996 or 97...I can't remember.

That sounds like the show I was referring to.

Hi Phantom,

Thank you.



Now to comment on the puppets from the stage show. It was actually the pictures from that show that I saw after I built my puppet that made me go "what is with the colour scheme on the crab?"

At the time I hadn't (and to this day haven't) seen the film. When I saw the puppet I realized that I had goofed with just using the solid red. It still works I think.

The truth is that is was all meant as a learning experience and ultimately it is what I achieved. I am now much better prepared to build from other's designs, even cartoon characters.
