Disney Movie Magic Script

Opening Scene
Host 1: Welcome, one and all, to our performance of “Disney Movie Magic.” We will perform
a revue, which is a medley of songs all combined together into one performance piece.
Host 2: Our revue features songs from famous Disney movies, including The Lion King, The
Hunchback of Notre Dame, Pocahontas, Toy Story, 101 Dalmatians, and Hercules.
Without further ado, let’s start the…
Stage Manager 1: (interrupting) Not so fast, we need to do a few final checks before we begin.
Host 2: What do you mean?
Stage Manager 2: Well, there’s a lot involved in this production, and as stage managers, we need to go
through our list one last time. Just in case.
Host 1: They’re right, you know. Remember a few years ago when we put on that amazing
laser show and full-length opera – but forgot to invite an audience?
Host 2: Oh, yeah! And we trained a parrot to sing the soprano’s aria! Too bad no one ever saw
it. (to stage managers) Okay, you can proceed.
Stage Manager 1: Good. First thing’s first, audience…(looks around at audience) check.
Student 1: Hey, I think I see Mr. Zweig in the audience. Have you heard him sing? He’s
incredible! Can we get him to join our show?
Student 2: I don’t think so. We don’t have the budget for that kind of talent.
Stage Manager 2: Next, performers…(looks around at students) check. STUDENTS WAVE TO
STAGE MANAGER
Stage Manager 1: Performing space…check.
Student 3: Shouldn’t we be putting on this show at the Kennedy Center, or Carnegie Hall?
Student 4: Well, it’s not exactly the Kimmel Center, but it’s Pine Run and it’s our home. A great
place to grow, and a great place for a show! Plus, does Carnegie Hall have our logo
painted on its wall? I think not.
Stage Manager 2: Speaking of space, did we have any large-group choreography planned? There’s not
much room for it.
Host 1: No, it’s not really that kind of show.
Student 5: I can do choreography! I can kick! (kicks high)
Student 6: Me too! I can do a full split! (performs a split on floor)
Student 7 and 8: We can dab! (dabs)
Student 9: JAZZ HANDS!!!
Host 2: Stop that, now! This is a dab-free zone. Stage managers, are we almost ready?
Stage Manager 1: One last thing – the orchestra. By orchestra, I mean instrumental track. Stage crew, is
the music ready to go?
(Stage crew plays track – parrot singing “The Magic Flute” opera)
Hosts: What was that?
Stage Crew 1: Sorry, got the music mixed up. That was the opera parrot from a few years ago. It’s all
fixed now, we’re ready to go.
Stage Manager 1: Check. We’re ready! (gives thumbs up to hosts)
Host 1: Wonderful! We’re excited to FINALLY present to you, “Disney Movie Magic!”

Closing Scene
Student 10: Wow, we did it! What a great show!
Student 11: It did go well, but…
Student 12: But, what?
Student 11: I can’t help but feel like a song was missing.
Student 10: Sure, lots of songs were missing, there have been hundreds of songs performed in
Disney movies!
Student 11: Yeah, but…
Student 12: Hmm. We sang “Circle of Life” but not the very beginning of the song, you know…
(OPENING MUSIC PLAYS, RAFIKI STEPS OUT HOLDING STUFFED LION CUB)
Student 11: That’s not it. Maybe it’s not from a Disney movie, per se.
Student 10: What about a song from a Disney theme park? Like “It’s a Small World”?
(IT’S A SMALL WORLD PLAYS, STUDENTS IMITATE ANIMATRONIC PUPPETS)
Student 13: (in the crowd) Thanks, now it’s going to be in my head ALL DAY.
Student 11: No, I know, something from a recent Disney movie!
(LET IT GO PLAYS, ELSA WALKS UP AISLE CASTING ICE POWER)
ALL: NO!!!!! (Elsa turns around sadly and walks away)
Student 11: I’ve got it! The brand new Disney movie that just came out, Moana, has the best song
in it!
Student 14: You mean, “How Far I’ll Go?” I love that song! And it was written by Lin-Manuel
Miranda, who wrote the hit Broadway musical, “Hamilton.”
Student 11: That’s the one! Can we perform that as an encore, one final song?
Student 12: What do you think, guys, can we?
ALL: Yeah!
Student 10: Thank you for being such a great audience for us. We’ll finish our show for you with
“How Far I’ll Go” from Moana. We hope you’ve enjoyed our performance!
