The boys and I had a great time with Mickey Mouse and his band of friends, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy last Sunday at the Long Beach Performing Arts Center. It was over 100 here so I was looking forward to heading to the coast for some cooler weather (we chilled down to the 90s in Long Beach, so it wasn't much of a relief).
This event was definitely a smaller scale than the fancy Disney on Ice Productions we have experienced, but Disney has yet to disappoint. My kids hadn't seen even half of the shows (Aladdin, The Little Mermaid and Disney/Pixar’s Toy Story) the musical productions were based on and they still had a blast.
“One song can touch millions of people around the world and Disney has been at the beat of this concept for years by making music a main ingredient of storytelling,” said Producer and CEO of Feld Entertainment Kenneth Feld. “In Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival we are celebrating with the Disney characters to a soundtrack of the latest sounds and chart-topping hits. We want our guests to walk away with lasting memories and singing these unforgettable melodies long after they leave the show.”
My boys were definitely singing the songs the last few days!
Disney Live! Mickey’s Music Festival, featuring an all star line-up of more than 25 Disney characters, begins with audiences watching a state-of-the-art video projection of the frenzy backstage which spills onto the stage as Mickey welcomes guests to his concert tour. Soon thereafter, they will be transported to a new world of hip hop beats, dizzying acrobatics, flying carpets and magical transformations with Aladdin, Jasmine and Genie. Underwater is where the crowd will meet up with Ariel, Sebastian and their nautical pals to groove to the reggae rhythm. And family and friends will stomp to the beat as Woody, Buzz and Jessie teach them how to boogie rodeo-style.
