Details have been announced for a UK arena tour that celebrates Disney’s seminal music and timeless storytelling in its milestone 100th anniversary year.

Disney100: The Concert is a multimedia experience featuring legendary film scenes on a giant screen and magical musical moments brought to life by the Hollywood Sound Orchestra.

Strictly star and Disney super-fan, Janette Manrara, will host the tour which will feature a cast of star soloists and ensemble performers from recent Disney in Concert tours, when it arrives at Resorts World Arena in Birmingham on Tuesday 6th May 2023.

The show's performers have strong musical theatre pedigree; they include Bessy Ewa (Hello, Dolly!), Cleve September (Hamilton) and Georgina Hagen (We Will Rock You).

Plus the soundtrack features the greatest songs from films such as The Lion King, Aladdin, Frozen and Mary Poppins as well as highlights from the worlds of Pixar, Star Wars and Marvel. Speaking about hosting the tour, Janette said:

“It’s no secret I’m a big Disney fan, so to be able to celebrate all the beautiful music of the last 100 years that Disney’s storytelling has brought us, is an absolute joy!”

Whether underwater or on the high seas, in the vastness of the universe or simply in a children's room, the soundtracks of Disney’s stories touch hearts and move people of all generations.
