Gracie Hernandez

as Ariel

Gracie Hernandez (Ariel) is more than thrilled to be a part of Blue Valley West's production of The Little Mermaid. This is her 10th show at West and she is very excited to be back onstage. Outside of rehearsal, Gracie enjoys singing, spending time with loved ones, and sleeping. She is very thankful for her friends, family, and amazing set of cast members for being so supportive. If Gracie lived under the sea, she'd love to be a sea turtle.

Aiden Smith

as Prince Eric

Aiden Smith (Prince Eric)  is a Junior and is super pumped and honored to have the opportunity to play the role of Prince Eric. This is his 3rd BVW show, but first musical here at West! He has also done many shows with CYT KC. Aiden enjoys being with friends and family and he also loves to play guitar and serenade anyone and everyone in the nearby proximity. He currently works at Party City so swing by and go visit him anytime! If Aiden were to be any sea creature, he would most definitely be Dory... because Ellen DeGeneres. Enough said.

Brenly Lott

as Ursula

Brenly Lott (Ursula/Costumes) is so excited for her final musical at Blue Valley West. She has been in 11 mainstage shows and is involved in Repertory Theater, Costumes, Thespian board, and Chamber choir. She would like to thank her family and boyfriend Tyler for putting up with her constant singing and for always supporting her. She will be attending Oregon State University in the fall and can't wait to pursue Marine Biology! If she could be any sea creature she would want to be a Jellyfish or Octopus ;)
