Knight is deeply grateful for what the Rapids are doing to support Special Olympics. “They’re leading the way, and they’re dragging other teams with them,” Knight said. “It’s great to see the momentum we picked up last year is continuing, and I think next year it’s going to grow even further.”. In a ceremony after the game, Rapids technical director Paul Bravo hung medals around the neck of every player on both teams. “We did good,” said Villela. “I had my players go out there and play their hardest. We tied up, and it’s a good game. We tried our best, I did my best being the captain, I’m proud of my team, I’m proud of the other team.”.
The supporting cast is generally strong, including Ariel’s six ballet leotards for large chest sisters, her boyish chum Flounder (12-year-old J.D, Cerruti), Ursula’s eel henchmen (Liz Marsh and Vinh Nguyen), the prince’s posh guardian (Matthew Kelly) and an outrageously flamboyant French chef with a taste for seafood (Matt Busbee), To have a white actor play the crab Sebastian, a role originated by African-American performers both on film and on Broadway, presents an interesting conundrum, because the character has a thick Jamaican accent that’s written into his calypso-style songs, Perhaps wisely, Scott Maraj downplays the accent as a faint lilt, and in fact, his Sebastian is understated all around, The frustrated and fretful crustacean courtier tasked with keeping Ariel out of trouble here becomes generally glum and listless, barely livening up for his big song-and-dance numbers..
That drive is so intense that it has made a dancer, perhaps against his will, of Miko’s younger brother, Jules. The dancer who’s come the longest way is Joan Sebastian Samora, who left his family in Cali, Colombia, to train in Manhattan. And the dancer who tries the hardest to have a well-adjusted teenage life is Rebecca Houseknecht, who jokes that she became a cheerleader as “another attempt at normalcy.”. These performers are so young, so serious, so full of dreams and so hard on themselves that it is difficult not to be moved by their striving.
