Those tails sticking out off their butts just throw me off. I've seen Lion King many times and loved it; the costumes worked for me. But I dunno, somehow the Little Mermaid thing doesn't seem to translate as well to the stage.

I like them. it's sort of special effects. they are fish and still can move around like a human. makes it easier for the actors too.

It's probably just my unreasonable hatred of Hellies...er, Heelys...kicking in.

I do have to say that Mary Poppins on stage is awesome.
