Disney on Ice: The Art of Animation

Disney on Ice: 100 Years of Magic (also known as Everyone's Story in Japan and Southeast Asia) premiered in 1999. It has been overhauled in 2005, 2007, 2010, 2011, 2015, 2017, and so on. This time, it will feature new characters and new scenes.

Synopsis
Opened on September 3, 1999, 100 Years of Magic, has also been known as All Star Parade and The Magical World of Disney on Ice. In 2004, the characters from A Bug's Life were dropped and Jessie from Toy Story 2 and the characters from Finding Nemo and The Incredibles were added in 2005. Stitch was later added to the show since 2007 as well.

By 2011, The Incredibles and Finding Nemo were replaced by Pluto and the characters from The Princess and the Frog, Tangled, Fairies, Alice in Wonderland, and Stitch's family. By September 2015, Daisy, Chip and Dale, Pocahontas and John Smith, It's a Small World, Fairies, Foulfellow and Gideon, and Monstro were replaced by Frozen, Penny from Proud Family, characters from Recess and Finding Nemo again and it featured a new look of the castle. By 2017, Penny from Proud Family and characters from Recess were replaced by American Dragon Jake Long while Nick and Judy from Zootopia were added to solve an off-ice caper.

Judy and Nick were omitted in October 2018; so in the preshow, a host, Donald, and Goofy arrive before the intro. Plus, Mickey and Minnie's new Shanghai masks have been introduced.

Plot
During the pre-show, A host introduces Donald and Goofy to get things started.

Goofy: I'll say.

Mickey: You know, each of us has a special Disney memory too. Right gang?

Goofy: Yup!

Donald: Yeah!

(Pluto barks)

Minnie: That's right, Mickey.

Jiminy: You know, all this talk-about songs has got me remembering a certain song of my own; and a twinkling little star.

Mickey: Gosh. Sure wish we can hear about that.

Jiminy: Well, lemme tell ya, Mickey. Wishes can come true. Yup, take it from me. ("When You Wish Upon a Star" starts as the Blue Fairy arrives)

(sings) ''When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are Anything your heart desires Will come to you.''

''If your heart is in your dream, No request is too extreme. When you wish upon a star'' As dreamers do

(musical interlude)

''When you wish upon a star, Your dreams...come...true!''

Dory: (sings) Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.

Belle: (sings) ''I want adventure in the great wide somewhere I want it more than I can tell And for once it might be grand To have someone understand. (musical interlude and Lumiere comes out'') (giggles) Hello, Lumiere.

Lumiere: Oh, bonjour, Mademoiselle. Taking a stroll around the castle?

Belle: Aha.

Lumiere: Very good. Just remember, do not go into the west wing. The master has forbidden it. Oh, cherie!

Babette: Oh no no no. I've been burnt by you before.

Belle: The West Wing. What's in here anyway?

Lumiere: Oh là là. Did you see that?

Cogsworth: Oh, Lumiere. What are you muttering about now?

Babette: The girl! She is here!

Cogsworth: I'm not seeing this! I am not seeing this!

Belle: What unusual rose.

(When Belle is about to touch the rose, the Beast enters the rink and roars)

Beast: What are you doing here?

Belle: I didn't mean any harm.

Beast: Do you realize what you could have done? GET OUT!!! GET OOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUT!!!

Belle: Promise or no promise. I can't stay here any minute.

Beast: Well you shouldn't have been in the West Wing.

Belle: Well you should learn to control your temper.

(The princesses and princes skate along as they exit the rink, and Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, Pluto, and Jiminy comes out to see them briefly)

Singers: ''When you wish upon a star, Your dreams come true.''

Mickey: So, has seeing all these stories help you fellas decide on what you're making your movie about?

Goofy: Gwarsh, with all this dancing around, I kinda forgot.

Jiminy: Well, don't worry, Goofy. With so many great stories to tell like singing and dancing, I'll bet it'll be inspired by one of them.

Mickey: In fact, our next very special story is about two sisters who live in a place called Arendelle.

Minnie: One's a fearless princess who goes on a quest to find her sister she loves.

(Pluto barks)

Mickey: That's right, Pluto. (The bells ring to "For the First Time in Forever") Do you hear those bells? That must mean it's coronation day in Arendelle.

Minnie: Oh, Mickey. It would be great to see that right now.

Donald: Oh boy! That's gonna be a good one!

Jiminy: Then let's go!

(Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, Pluto, and Jiminy exit the rink as the "Frozen" story starts with Anna singing "For the First Time in Forever")

Act 2
Singer: ''From the day we arrive on the planet And blinking step into the sun. There's more to see, that can ever be seen More to do that can ever be done.''

''It's far too much to take in here. More to find that can ever be found But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky Keeps great and small at the endless round.''

''It's the circle of life And it moves us all With despair and hope Through faith and love''

''Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the circle, The circle of life.''

(While the other characters move to the sides of the rink, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, Pluto, and Jiminy head to the front.)

Jiminy: Well, it's been quite a journey, hasn't it?

Minnie: Oh, Jiminy. I'm having such a wonderful time! So, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto did all of these wonderful stories help you figure out what your movie should be about?

Goofy: They sure did.

Donald: We're gonna have a great story.

(Pluto barks)

Jiminy: But you know, somebody is still missing.

(Minnie giggles)

Goofy: And the greatest stories are about things you care about and people you love.

Minnie: You're right, Goofy. Oh, Jiminy, do you remember what our old friend Walt Disney used to say?

Jiminy: Well, Walt himself always reminded everyone...

Walt Disney: “I only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing — that it was all started by a mouse.”

(Mickey emerges from the castle)

Singers: ''When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are...When you wish upon a star, your dreams....(come) dreams.... (come) true (your)...dreams...come...true!''

Mickey: Gosh! This has really been a swell celebration! Hasn't it, Minnie?

Minnie: Oh, Mickey! It's been wonderful!

Mickey: And thank you for making our circle of life complete. Haha!

(The characters come to shake hands with the audience as "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" plays out. At the last verse of the song, they exit on both sides of the rink save for Minnie and Mickey)

Mickey: Well, so long folks!

Minnie: Goodbye, everyone! (blows a goodbye kiss) Remember we love you! Buh-bye!

Singers:  (Mickey and Minnie leave the rink by entering the castle) M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E

(The door closes followed by the curtain ending the show)
