We now invite you to join Mickey and experience Fantasmic! — a journey beyond your wildest imagination.

(Music begins and grows. MICKEY MOUSE appears in his sorcerer's apprentice outfit.)

CHORUS: Imagination...

(MICKEY looks around as the show lights go up.)

CHORUS: Dream a fantastic dream! Use your imagination!

(MICKEY points to the left and right as two pyrotechnics shoot from the stage. And the lights shine on MICKEY as he brought the fountains to life as the Fantasmic! theme plays. He then moves to the second floor and shoots out pyrotechnics from his fingers. He makes a comet appear on the mist projection screens and fades into the Sorcerer's Apprentice scene where he conducts shooting stars. Then, the mist screens depicts the brooms walking and splashing everywhere. The projections change to flowers as the music changes back to main theme.)

FEMALE SINGER: See it in your mind, And you can find In your imagination, Mysteries and magic, Visions fantastic, Leading to strange and wondrous dreams.

(Large flowers dances onstage. Music changes to "The Circle of Life" as the mist screens depict MICKEY MOUSE walking towards the sunrise and RAFIKI holding up BABY SIMBA. The music changes to jungle beat as KAA appears onstage, projecting a bright beams of light from his eyes. The jungle medley, consisting of "I Just Can't Wait to be King", "Bare Necessities" and "I Wanna Be Like You", began playing as the dancing monkeys, BALOO, KING LOUIE appear on three barges and CHIP N' DALE, DARKWING DUCK and LAUNCHPAD MCQUACK on the plane with "Rescue Rangers/Darkwing Duck Theme" playing. A projection on the stage shows MICKEY MOUSE, SIMBA, NALA, TIMON, PUMBAA and ZAZU dancing, walking and flying as "Hakuna Matata" plays. Then, the music changes again to a dubstep version of "Pink Elephants on Parade." The mist screens depict DUMBO and TIMOTHY seeing PINK ELEPHANTS and waving at MICKEY MOUSE.)

Timothy: Pink elephants are everywhere!

MALE SINGERS: Look out! Look out!

MALE SINGER: Pachyderms! They’re here! They’re there! Oh no! Look out! They’re everywhere!

(Music abruptly changes to "I've Got No Strings." PINOCCHIO and DANCING GIRL puppets appear onstage and dance. Music climaxes with a can-can. MICKEY MOUSE appears, holding a magic lamp and the mist screens depict GENIE coming out of the lamp as the music changes to "Friend Like Me.")

Genie: Whoa! Does it feel good to be outta there! (pretends to have a microphone) Nice to be back, ladies and gentlemen. (to Mickey Mouse) Hi, where ya from? What's your name?

Mickey Mouse: Uh... well, uh...

Genie: I don't think you quite realize what you've got here! (sings) Can your friends do this? (shapeshifts into Donald Duck) Do your friends do that? (shapeshifts into Goofy)

Mickey Mouse: Well, look at that.

Genie: (sings) Do your friends pull this out their little hat? Can your friends go poof? Well, looky here...

(A projection onstage shows WHITE RABBIT appearing out of the sorcerer hat and the 2013 TV version of MINNIE MOUSE, DONALD DUCK AND GOOFY playing the banjo, the tiny piano and horn)

Mickey Mouse: Gosh.

Genie: (sings) Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er rip! And then make the sucker disappear?

Mickey Mouse: Whoa! (He disappeared.)

(The mist screens depict LUMIERE on the dining table, entertaining MICKEY as "Be Our Guest" plays.)

(The scene transitions to underwater as the mist screens depict MICKEY swimming to see SEBASTIAN and his fish friends as "Under the Sea" plays.)

Sebastian: (sings) Down here all the fish is happy as off through the waves they roll. The fish on the land ain't happy. They sad 'cause they in their bowl. But fish in the bowl is lucky. They in for a worser fate. One day when the boss get hungry...

Sad fish: (sings) Guess who's gon' be on the plate?

Even the sturgeon an' the ray! They get the urge 'n' start to play! We got the spirit! You got to hear it Under the sea!

(MICKEY partys with SEBASTIAN until the music ends. The scene transitions to PINOCCHIO looking around and JIMINY CRICKET's voice calls out.)

Jiminy Cricket: (Offscreen.) Pinocchio! We’re down here! (He appears onscreen in a bubble and uses his umbrella to rescue his hat from an adjacent bubble.) Wha? Ho, there! (His bubble fills with water and pops. He notices fish swimming away.) Huh?

(MONSTRO appears on screen and scares away all the fish. Music turns threatening as MONSTRO creates splashes. MICKEY MOUSE appears on screen in the vortex of water created by the brooms in Fantasia.)

Mickey Mouse: Help! Whooooaaaa! (He is swallowed up by darkness, and only his eyes are visible on screen.) Uh, hey—what’s going on? Uh-oh!

(Music swells with thunder and lightning on screen. In an abrupt silence, a cannon fires. Lights up on the replica version of the Jolly Roger, carrying the cast of Peter Pan.)

Pirate #1: Peter Pan ahoy!

(PETER PAN crows.)

Captain Hook: Swoggle me eyes, it is Pan! Look alive, you swabs!

Mr. Smee: All hands on deck!

(PETER PAN swings down from the crow’s nest as CAPTAIN HOOK goes to meet him.)

Wendy: Oh Peter, do be careful!

Captain Hook: Come down, boy, if you’ve a taste for cold steel!

(The two spar. PETER PAN laughs and swings down another rope to the deck of the ship.)

Captain Hook: Blast this hook!

Peter Pan: (Laughs.) Whoa, haha!

Captain Hook: Scurvy brat!

(PIRATES corner PETER PAN.)

Pirates: Going somewhere? Let’s string him up! I’m gonna make you walk the plank! I’ll feed you to the sharks!

(PIRATES laugh as and swing their swords at PETER PAN, who jumps on the plank to avoid them.)

Captain Hook: Double the powder and shorten the fuse!

Mr. Smee: Shorten the powder, and double the fuse.

(Cannon fires again, causing PIRATE to fall from the ship’s rigging.)

Wendy: Oh how dreadful!

Peter Pan: Watch this, Wendy!

(PETER PAN swings on a rope and bounds and flips through the PIRATES. A PIRATE swings over the side of the ship toward PETER PAN as he balances on the ship’s bow.)

Mr. Smee: Cap’n… Cap’n Hook!

(PIRATES make fighting noises.)

Captain Hook: Get up, you idiot!

Mr. Smee: Aye-aye, sir!

Captain Hook: I’ll get you for this, Pan, if it’s the last thing I do!

(PIRATES threaten WENDY on deck.)

Pirates: Get over there! Don’t give us no trouble!

Wendy: Peter!

(PETER PAN flies up to the scaffolding.)

Captain Hook: (Advances toward Peter Pan.) I’ve got you this time, Pan! I’ve waited years for this!

Peter Pan: Look, you codfish! Here!

(PETER PAN and CAPTAIN HOOK sword fight amid the ship’s rigging. On deck, WENDY runs to the ship’s stern, followed by PIRATES. They grab her from either side and start a tug of war. She fights them off.)

Mr. Smee: Give it to him, Cap’n! Cleave him to the brisket!

Peter Pan: You’re mine, Hook!

(A gun fires.)

Peter Pan: Say your prayers, Hook!

Captain Hook: Let him have it! Blast him!

Peter Pan: Uh-uh-uh.

(Gun fires again, CAPTAIN HOOK screams and falls to the deck.)

Wendy: Fly, Peter!

Captain Hook: Oh, you blithering blockheads! That cursed Peter Pan!

Peter Pan: I say, Captain, do you hear something?

(CAPTAIN HOOK notices that the CROCODILE is swimming in the ship’s wake.)

Captain Hook: No! NOOOO!

Peter Pan: Mr. Crocodile, do you like codfish? You do? (Laughs.)

Captain Hook: (Swings behind the ship’s stern on ropes.) Save me, Smee! Save me! Please!

Mr. Smee: I’ll save you, Cap’n!

(CAPTAIN HOOK screams again as he swings back behind the stern.)

Mr. Smee: Oh, dear.

(Lights out on the Jolly Roger. MICKEY MOUSE appears alongside ANNA, in her winter outfit, onstage as the scene transits to Arendelle in the "Frozen" segment.)

Mickey Mouse: (He looks around and sees Anna) Whoa!

Anna: (sings) Cause for the first time in forever! For the first time in forever! Nothing's in my way! (She bumps into Mickey Mouse.) Hey!

Mickey Mouse: Gosh, I'm sorry. I didn't see where I was going.

Anna: No, no. It's okay. I'm Princess Anna of Arendelle.

Mickey Mouse: Haha. Say. It's cold. I wish it was summer.

(The mist screens depict OLAF hearing the word "summer".)

Olaf: Summer? Did that pointy-hatted mouse just say summer? Oh, I don't know why but I've always loved the idea of summer, and sun, and all things hot...

Mickey Mouse: Say, uh... I'm guessing you don't know anything about heat, do you?

Olaf: Nope! But sometimes I like to close my eyes and imagine what it’ll be like when summer does come.

(The scene on the mist screens transits to Olaf's dream of summer as "In Summer" plays.)

Olaf: (Sings) Bees'll buzz... Kids'll blow dandelion fuzz... And I'll be doing whatever snow does in summer. A drink in my hand. My snow up against the burning sand. Prob'ly getting gorgeously tanned in summer. I'll finally see a summer breeze blow away a winter storm. And find out what happens to solid water when it gets warm... And I can't wait to see... What my buddies all think of me... Just imagine how much cooler I'll be in summer! (He dances with some seagulls.) Dah-dah, da-doo, a-bah-bah-bah bah-bah-boo! (He, then, dances on a hill.) Winter's a good time to stay in and cuddle But put me in summer and I'll be a... (looks at a puddle and smiled) Happy snowman! When life gets rough, I like to hold on to my dream... Of relaxing in the summer sun, just lettin' off steam... (He lays down and looks at the sky.) Oh, the sky will be blue...

(MICKEY MOUSE and ANNA appears onstage.)

Olaf: (On the mist screens, sings) And you guys will be there too... When I finally do what frozen things do in summer! (speaking) Big finish! (sings) IN SUMMER!!!!

(Lights go out onstage. The scene on the mist screens transits from Arendelle to the North Mountain where ELSA was walking as "Let it Go" plays.)

Mickey Mouse: (Offscreen.) Gosh, it's a snowstorm. I wonder if there's anyone mastering the magic of snow and ice.

Olaf: (Offscreen.) Well, not everyone can be a master of ice and snow. Not everyone can be Elsa the Snow Queen. She built me. Watch...

Elsa: (sings) The snow glows white on the mountain tonight. Not a footprint to be seen. A kingdom of isolation, and it looks like I'm the queen. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside. Couldn't keep it in, Heaven knows I tried... Don't let them in, don't let them see. Be the good girl you always have to be. Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know... (She took off her glove.) Well, now they know! (She creates a staircase made of ice.) Let it go! Let it go! Can't hold it back anymore! Let it go! Let it go! Turn away and slam the door! (She prepares to build an ice castle, starting with an icy floor) I don't care what they're going to say! Let the storm rage on...

(A projection onstage depicts ELSA creating an ice castle.)

Elsa: (sings) My power flurries through the air into the ground My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around! And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast! (appears on the mist screens again, took her crown off and threw it out) I'm never going back, the past is in the past! (changes her hairstyle from bun to braid) Let it go! Let it go! (changes her coronation dress to an icy snow queen dress) And I'll rise like the break of dawn Let it go! Let it go! That perfect girl is gone! Here I stand in the light of day! Let the storm rage on!!! The cold never bothered me anyway...

(On the mist screens, a door to ELSA's ice castle was slammed and MICKEY MOUSE appeared, using his magic and imagination to create more imagery.)

FEMALE SINGER: See it in your mind, And you can find In your imagination, Tales of enchantment, Beauty and romance, Happily ever after!
