As guests aboard the all-new Disney Wish delight in a one-of-a-kind theatrical adaptation of “The Little Mermaid,” the Walt Disney Theatre comes to life with talented performers, colorful costumes and captivating stories about life under the sea.

In addition to a delightfully reimagined story, many of the costumes and set pieces used in the show were made from an unlikely material: recycled plastic.

That’s right! More than 60 percent of all fabric used in “Disney The Little Mermaid” – including 22 of 25 costumes – was made from plastic debris recovered from the ocean. Scooped up out of the sea, these whosits, whatsits and thingamabobs were melted into threads that were woven into material emulating fine silk, chiffon and cotton.
