One of the best Ursulas I've seen.

He takes the already iconic character Ursula to a whole new level of gods. He had so much and an amazing voice. Never stop singing

I LOVE that he kinda sound like jade in victorious ( when sarcasm is implied )

That confidence from a 13-year old, I'm both shocked and absolutely in love - I really hope I can say one day that I knew he'd become a broadway actor all along

Proof that children can do amazing things when they are supported and allowed to nurture their talents and gifts!

his voice is to die for 😭

I love how the guy is playing ursula, and the girls are playing the eels, they really focused on the talent

This kid is gonna make it, by golly

Kids seemed like they’ve got incredible natural talent that’s been refined down with training. If they haven’t had training, my god, that’s even more shocking.

This is the best middle finger to Ron DeSantis I can think of.

imagine someone asked you what you were in the play and you said a tentacle

Not only does he act very well, his range and voice is very well trained! Let’s hope puberty doesn’t hit him like abus

That makeup is criminal for how good he is

He hit the body language line in a way only a teenage boy could and I love it

I see a future drag queen or professional theater man in this boys future ✨

YES! THAT is a performer! Well done!

I'm an adult and I wish I had half this kid's confidence. He's spectacular as Ursula! I hope he goes into a career in theatre because he is very talented.

Nah Ursula doesn't need Ariel's voice 💀

Good for him! What a hero.

Broadway. Hollywood. Please… cast. This. TALENT!

This kid really flexed on everyone in that play and I’m all for it

This kid is a great talent. Someone sign him immediately!

This kid’s got pipes!

"You have you voice" "✨your pretty face✨" Boy he can sing-
