* AdaptedOut:
** Eric's dog Max, who found Ariel both in human and mermaid guise. This is for pragmatic reasons, since having a trained dog onstage is impractical.
** Ursula's alter-ego Vanessa isn't in the play. She was intended to appear but was removed when her original actress complained that introducing Vanessa made Ursula out of character.
** In the film continuity, Ursula had a sister (Morgana) and an unnamed mother. They do not exist in the musical's universe, since Ursula is now one of Poseidon's daughters.

There are two versions of the play: the original Broadway version and the revised European one. The latter fixes some issues audiences had with the play, removes songs, and is easier to produce due to set simplifications. A major plot change in the revised version is that Triton had thought that humans had killed his wife when it was in actuality his sister Ursula.
