What is the difference between The Little Mermaid the movie and the Broadway production?
I saw on a question and answer session that The Little Mermaid: the Broadway musical has a different ending than the original movie; i.e. Ariel saves the day instead of Prince Eric. Does anyone know how she saves the day?

In the play, ariel is tarnsformed backinto a mermaid and her father pleads for her life. Ursala desieves ariel into thinking that if she gives ursula the magic shell, then ursala will give her back her legs. ariel loves prince eric so she begins to head toward the sea witch. when she gets close enough, ursala unravels her plan to kill ariels father. Ariel becomes angery and smashes the shell on the stage. ursala then is killed, falling under the stage while ariel swims away.
Flotsom and Jetsom leave the scene as soon as Ursala gets the triton. So theire fate is unknown to the audience.

Ursula is destroyed when Ariel breaks the magic shell, seeing as staging her becoming a giant and subsequent impalement on a ship would be impossible to stage.
