Make sure you arrive on time to see the stars of Turning Red before the show, as they sing along to some of 4★Town and warm the audience up.

Pre-show
Before the show starts, two hosts come out and commentate on the red-carpet festivities, and invite the audience to guess some of their favorite Disney Movies including Snow White, Encanto, Toy Story, etc. Mei, Abby, Miriam, Priya, and Tyler walk in thinking this is the way to the 4-Town concert, which was apparently rescheduled, but the hosts invite the 5 to help the skaters warm up.

Act 1
As the cast leaves, the lights dim as the show begins. An announcer begins to welcome the audience and list all the nominees, as they introduce our host for the evening.....Mickey Mouse! Mickey is hosting a special awards show dedicated to the art of Disney Animation, and invited all of his friends to help. Goofy and Pluto are the behind the scenes camera crew as they try to broadcast the entire night, Minnie and Daisy are part of the parking valet team as they help everyone get parked. Mickey realized that he didn't give anything for Donald to do, and feels worried since Donald has wanted to help with the show, so Mickey gives him the most important job.........opening the envelope and announcing the winner for "Best Picture". There is another catch, the envelope is missing.....in an event that would happen Mickey and Minnie buy some time, that way Donald and Daisy some time to go and find it.

Mickey and Minnie tell the audience the story of our first nominee and the very first animated feature of all time: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, as the audience becomes transported into their tale. As we encounter all seven dwarfs, they sing their way back to home as they notice a stranger in their house.....Snow White, who becomes no stranger to them thanks to her kindness. The dwarfs agree to let her stay and hide her from the wicked Evil Queen, as they celebrate. On their way back to work, Snow White encounters the Witch (the Queen in disguise), and falls for the wishing apple, poisoning her in the process. The only way to break the curse is Love's First Kiss, which the Prince does, as he reunites with Snow White.

Mickey and Minnie tell the audience the next story of nominee: Beauty and the Beast. Belle dreams about going on an adventure somewhere. When she enters the castle, Lumiere invites her to be their guest in order to break the curse as the silverware sing and dance. After dinner, as Belle and the Beast fall in love, Gaston tries to kill the Beast by stabbing his back. When the lighting shatters on the ledge he was standing, he falls to his death. Belle's love for the Beast breaks the curse, as the Beast turns back into a handsome Prince, so he and Belle live happily ever after.

Joining them in the romantic celebration are some of Disney's most famous couples including Cinderella and Prince Charming, Ariel and Eric, Aladdin (in his street clothes) and Jasmine, Mulan and Li Shang, Tiana and Naveen, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider.

Donald and Daisy, worried about the envelope try to look through the stage, failing to do so. Donald feels hopeless, but the Blue Fairy arrives and reassures the duo that everything will end up all right in the end. As the two ducks leave, she signals her good friend Jiminy Cricket to help set the mood for our next nominee: Pinocchio. The Blue Fairy brings Pinocchio to life, appointing him to make Geppetto's wish come true by proving himself to be brave, trustworthy, and unselfish and employs Jiminy as his conscience.

Mickey and Minnie try to introduce the next nominee but are interrupted by the White Rabbit, who seems to be late for something. Now joined by Alice, Mad Hatter, and Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, they take the presentation into their own hands leading into a rousing un-birthday celebration as some volunteers are selected to ride a Mad Tea Party tea cup.

After a brief interruption, Mickey and Minnie introduce the next nominee: Peter Pan as Captain Hook and Mr. Smee who seem to be running away from something...the Tick Tock Croc. Mickey reassures Hook that the crocodile is far away, and is relieved. As the pirates and mice leave, Tinkerbell enters and lets Peter know that she found his shadow. Wendy notices the young boy from Neverland has found his shadow, as he tells Wendy all about Neverland. (second star to the right). Peter then teaches Wendy and the lost boys how to fly as venture off to Neverland.

In the romantic celebration there are some of Disney's most famous couples including Cinderella and Prince Charming, Princess Aurora and Prince Phillip, Ariel and Eric, Tiana and Naveen, Aladdin (in his street clothes) and Jasmine, Belle and her Prince, Mulan and Li Shang, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, Snow White and her Prince.

Act 2
Mickey and Minnie welcome the audience back, as a surge starts to blow throughout the awards venue. Goofy tries to repair the technical damage with the Goof-o-matic instant machine repair method making things a little bit worse. Mickey wonders how Donald is doing and gives him a call.

Still in the jungle, Donald and Daisy are still trying to find the envelope. They then notice Rafiki is about to tell the story of The Lion King and quickly find a place to watch. Young Simba dreams to be king and claiming he can do anything he wants, as Rafiki tries to talk some sense into the youngster. Timon and Pumbaa enter the scene and teach him how to enjoy life. Reuniting with his childhood friend, they find out love is in the air.

Back at the awards show, there's not much technical difficulties as it has been repaired. Goofy then finds a toybox, and talks to Mickey about what could possibly be inside.....as they leave Sarge pops up and summons his army of green soldiers to retrieve a mysterious present from downstairs. Sarge then gets the toys to assemble for a staff meeting, among them are Bo Peep, Rex, Hamm, and of course Sheriff Woody. Woody goes over the things in the agenda, including choosing a moving buddy, Tuesday's Plastic Corrosion Awareness meeting, and of course, the birthday party being moved to today. Woody assures the toys that no one is getting replaced, as the present gets opened to reveal Buzz Lightyear. Jealous of the new toy, Buzz reassures him that you've got a friend in him, later joined by Jessie reuniting with Woody.

Donald and Daisy find their way back to the awards show, by finding a log canoe. Maui enters and notices Donald and Daisy finding the canoe, and offers to let them use it in return by telling how he (and Moana) saved the Heart of Te Fiti. Moana dreams to venture beyond the reef, and has to restore the heart of Te Fiti, alongside Maui. Maui brags about his accomplishments and reluctantly joins Moana on the condition he gets his hook back.

Our next presenter, Olaf introduces the audience to a mystical tale recapping the first Frozen, and then explains a bit of what's going on. Sven, Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff all arrive in a sled, noticing they left Olaf behind. Olaf explains to the audience that they're on a quest to find a mysterious voice. Elsa suggests it might be coming from someone in the audience while Kristoff tries to look on the other side of the stage. Elsa questions this mysterious voice, and the enchanted forest starts acting up. Now stressed with Elsa, she feels like their very presence has endangered the enchanted forest. Anna also warns Elsa not to run into fire. Kristoff leads them to an ocean where they encounter Nokk the Water spirit. Elsa tries to confront the voice which reveals she is the fifth spirit.

The final presentation of the night is Disney's newest animated hit Encanto. Mirabel laments on not having a gift and waits on a miracle. After the song, Mirabel starts to see one of the tiles fall off, and tries to warn the rest of the family. But then explains to the audience that when she led them to the cracks, they were gone. Mirabel also tells the audience how Abuela was talking to a picture of Abuelo about how the miracle needs to be saved, as Mirabel planned. First she needed to talk to Dolores about the issue, and she states that she needs to go to Luisa for help. Luisa tells Mirabel to go look in Bruno's tower, and she needs to find out more about Bruno by asking Pepa. Mirabel then enters trying to interrogate her about Bruno. While Pepa refuses to speak on the subject matter, Félix chimes in on how nightmarish it was, Dolores chimed in on how she could hear Bruno in the walls of Casita, the villagers complain about many of Bruno's prophecies along with Isabella and Dolores as well. Now finding Bruno, she finds out that she needs to hug Isabella, and finds out that she is forced to be perfect all her life. Abuela confused on what's going on, is confronted by Mirabel and realizes she's that the miracle is not a gift, but actually the family.

Donald and Daisy return just in time, and have the envelope. Mickey returns to let Donald know that there was no envelope OR a winner, because each story is unique in their own way. Mickey does tell Donald to open the envelope anyway. Turns out it was a surprise award "The Best Friend in the Whole Wide World Award" planned by Mickey and his friends as a little thank you for all he's done. Now joined by most of the cast, the awards celebration concludes with a big finale celebrating the power of stories.
