Throughout the year our SuperNovas class will work on a number of songs that they will ultimately present at our Musical Theatre End of Year Showcase performances at the end of the year, on Saturday 22 November, 2025 (scroll down for more information about our 2025 Musical Theatre Showcase). 

Parents and Students are asked to keep an eye on this page, where updates, practice resources and homework notes will be regularly added throughout the year.

TERM ONE SONG: Les Poissons
From The Little Mermaid
With music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater

First released in 1989 The Little Mermaid is a Disney animated musical film which is loosely based on the 1837 Danish fairy tale "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Andersen. The Little Mermaid tells the story of a teenage mermaid princess named Ariel, who dreams of becoming human and falls in love with a human prince named Eric, which leads her to make a magic deal with the sea witch, Ursula, to become human and be with him.

Our song "Les Poissons" is sung by the French character Chef Louis. Translated, "les poissons" simply means "the fishes".  Sebastian the crab is trapped in a kitchen with a rather un-hinged Chef Louis who sings the song while preparing a seafood dinner for the newly human Ariel and Prince Eric.

TERM TWO SONG: Welcome to Wonderland
From Wonderland
With music by Frank Wildhorn and lyrics by Jack Murphy

Wonderland is a contemporary version of the novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass (1871) by Lewis Carroll, and is set in New York City and focuses on writer Alice Cornwinkle and her 10-year-old daughter Chloe.
Alice and Chloe have just moved to Queens, New York. Chloe laments about the move and her family's demise. After hitting her head in the elevator Alice learns that her children's book manuscript has been rejected by the publishers saying it is too dark for children. She falls asleep, only to be woken by the White Rabbit and taken to Wonderland. 
There, she encounters strange people and creatures in our song "Welcome to Wonderland".
