Disney Junior - Live on Stage!

Animation Courtyard
Disney's Hollywood Studios

INTRODUCTION

Disney Junior -Live on Stage! is a new show that replaced "Playhouse Disney – Live on Stage!" at Disney's Hollywood Studios on March 4, 2011. It has been updated again as of February 2013 with the addition of two new characters: Doc McStuffins and Sofia the First. The show brings the stars of the Disney Channel's Disney Junior television shows, geared to preschoolers, together to entertain Walt Disney World guests with music, songs and stories of friendship. This attraction is housed in Soundstage 5 in the Animation Courtyard.

ATTRACTION

Disney Junior -Live on Stage! -- Stars of the Disney Channel's popular "Disney Junior" (formerly known as Playhouse Disney) programming block, geared to preschool audiences, take the stage in this fun-filled show, with sing-alongs and dance activities.

The stage show features visits to characters of each of the shows, hosted by a live cast member, Casey. The scene starts in Mickey's colorful clubhouse, and continues with the characters trying to make the best birthday party ever for Minnie Mouse. Characters highlighted in the show come from the following shows: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Jake and the Never Land Pirates (also featured in video below), and the new Doc McStuffins and Sofia the First.

In addition to the fun special effects (bubbles and confetti rain down on you at various points of the show), youngsters in the audience can join the gang in singing along with catchy tunes and dancing.

TOURING TIPS

Disney Junior Live! is definitely geared to the preschool set, although young school-age children (and their grown-up escorts) will find it a pleasant show.

Guests are seated on the floor during this show, although there is a line of benches at the rear right side of the soundstage.

To be seated near the stage, arrive at the Soundstage at least 10-15 minutes prior to showtime.
