Connor Norfleet( Ensemble) Connor Norfleet is positoovly dripping with excitement to invite you( and the rest of daddy’ s little angels) to join him under the sea.

This trumpet fish also enjoyed swimming around on and off the stage during TCR‘ s Frozen( it’ s like The Little Mermaid but colder). Connor would like to thank his fellow sea creatures and the hot crustacean band for making every show better down where it’ s wetter, and for helping him reach his full potential as a fish.
James Odegaard( Grimsby) James is maybe getting a little seasick with all his time back & forth in different roles on the TCR stage( s)… and maybe it was just to help him get in character now as Grimsby in The Little Mermaid.
