On October 26, Walt Disney World Guests were treated to first-ever appearances by Princess Tiana, star of the upcoming Walt Disney Pictures animated feature film “The Princess and the Frog.” Beginning with a one-time royal procession through the Magic Kingdom, Princess Tiana was welcomed by a cavalcade of characters including Snow White, Aurora, Ariel, Cinderella, and Belle.
Shortly thereafter, Princess Tiana and other characters from the motion picture starred in “Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee!,” a rousing, colorful show with a jazz-filled Mardi Gras theme. The good times rolled as festively-dressed, bead-tossing paraders lead park Guests to the Liberty Belle Riverboat dock. The party moved onboard the Liberty Belle Riverboat as she paddlewheeled her way along the river to singing, dancing and all that jazz. Day-time pyrotechnics, colorful streamers and whimsical puppetry round out the 15-minute spirited production. The show will be performed three times daily, and will also be featured at Disneyland Resort. Princess Tiana will also be available for meet & greet opportunities at select times each day in designated areas.
“Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee!” will dazzle Guests at Disney Parks through January 2010.
