Just before Sebastian comes on stage, the lasers converge above the stage.
In the center, just before the lasers turn off, there's the distinctive
three circle pattern of a Hidden Mickey.

The show begins with slides that change into a movie showing the boat
coming toward the audience. As the prow dips into a wave for the second
time, watch the foam at the prow. As the foam dissipates, a Hidden Mickey
is revealed.

I couldn't find this Mickey, but the footage they're using is lifted straight
from the film's opening, so anyone with a VCR and a copy of the movie on
videotape can check this one for themselves at home.

The foam does make a Mickey.
I haven't checked it out on the video tape yet, but it sure looked like a Mickey to me.

I sat in the second row
just right of center stage. If you look up at the stars on
the ceiling, straight up from where I was sitting you can see
the outline of Mickey's head -- a Hidden Mickey.

When Ursula appears on stage in The Voyage of the Little Mermaid, wait for her to lift her front tentacle. On the bottom you can see a sideways Hidden Mickey formed by the "suction cups" on her tentacle.

Flourescent markings, which glow under our powerful black lights, are painted on the floor of our stage. These marks guide our performers and technicians in the dark. A few feet back from center stage, someone has painted (in flourescent green) a small, classic-styled hidden Mickey (the one with one large circle for the head, and two smaller circles for ears). He is about the size of a half dollar and glows very brighly during each show. Of course you can only see it if you are actually on the stage, so it's impossible for guests in the audience to ever see it. It wasn't "created" by Walt Disney Imagineering, so it's not an "official" hidden Mickey. It was in fact, put there by a fellow performer. And we love it.
