(Music begins with fanfare.)

NARRATOR
And they all lived happily ever after. Each of us has a dream, a heart’s desire. It calls to us. And when we’re brave enough to listen, and bold enough to pursue, that dream will lead us on a journey to discover who we’re meant to be. All we have to do is look inside our hearts and unlock the magic within.

MALE VOCALIST (JORDAN FISHER)
Ready to begin?
Let the wonder take hold.

FEMALE VOCALIST (ANGIE KEILHAU)
Feel it draw you in.
Watch the moment unfold.

BOTH
Spark a dream that we’re meant to follow,
Setting out for a new tomorrow.

MALE VOCALIST
Every step we take
Brings a new hope, a new day.

FEMALE VOCALIST
Every choice we make
Helps us find our own way.

BOTH
Every wish finally put into motion,
Diving in with our hearts wide open.

FEMALE VOCALIST
The story comes alive,

MALE VOCALIST
(When we look inside.)

FEMALE VOCALIST
A new adventure there in your eyes.

MALE VOCALIST
(There in your eyes.)

BOTH
It’s just beginning.
Feel your heart beat faster.
Reach out and find your
Happily ever after!

FEMALE VOCALIST
Find your happily ever after.

(Music shifts to “Down in New Orleans [Prologue]” and a shooting star flies past the castle.)

TIANA
The evening star is shining bright,
So make a wish and hold on tight.
There’s magic in the air tonight,
And anything can happen.

(Music shifts to “When You Wish Upon a Star” fanfare. Music shifts to “Part of Your World.” Music shifts to “Out There.”)

QUASIMODO
Out there, strolling by the Seine.
Taste a morning out there, like ordinary men
Who freely walk about there,
Just one day, and then I swear
I’ll be content with my share.

Won’t resent, won’t despair.
Old and bent, I won’t care.
I’ll have spent one day out there!

(Music shifts to “Touch the Sky.”)

MERIDA
Your destiny lies within you. You just have to be brave enough to see it. And then your journey begins!

I will read every story,
Take hold of my own dream.
Be as strong as the seas are stormy,
And proud as an eagle’s scream.

I will ride, I will fly, 
Chase the wind and touch the sky!
I will fly.
Chase the wind and touch the sky.

CHORUS
(Na na na na,
Na na na na,
La na na na,
Na na na)

MERIDA
Chase the wind and touch the sky!

(Music shifts to “How Far I’ll Go.”)

MOANA
Every turn I take, every trail I track,
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I can not go, where I long to be.

See the light as it shines on the sea? It’s blinding.
But no one knows how deep it goes.
And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me!
And let me know, what’s beyond that line, will I cross that line?

The line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me.
And no one knows, how far it goes.
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,
One day I’ll know, how far I’ll go!

(Music shifts to Aladdin underscore.)

ALADDIN
Trust me, having a best friend by your side opens up a whole new world of possibilities!

(Music shifts to “Friend Like Me.”)

CHORUS
Oh, whoa…
Oh, my…
Oh, yeah…

(Music shifts to “Trashing the Camp”)

CHORUS
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, zooboo doo dap ‘n dee yap.
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, zooboo doo ‘n dee dee yoop.
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, buh kah, buh kah, buh kah, buh kah!
Dwee yap, dwee yoo.

(Music shifts to “Hakuna Matata.” Music shifts to “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.” Music shifts to “The Bare Necessities.” Music shifts back to “Hakuna Matata.” Music shifts back to “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.” Music shifts to “That’s What Friends Are For.”)

FEMALE CHORUS
And when you’re outside, looking in,
Who’s there to open the door?

BASS SOLOIST
That’s what friends are for!

(Music shifts back to “Friend Like Me.”)

CHORUS
Mister Aladdin, sir,
Have a wish or two or three.
I’m on the job, you big nabob,

GENIE
You ain’t never had a friend,
Never had a friend.
You ain’t never had a friend,
Never had a friend.

GENIE AND CHORUS
You ain’t never had a
Friend like me!

GENIE
Ya ha ha, ha ha ha,
You ain’t never had a friend like me!

(Music shifts to “Love Is an Open Door”)

OLAF
Some people are worth melting for. (Sigh.)

FEMALE SOLOIST 1
Say goodbye

FEMALE SOLOIST 2
Say goodbye

BOTH
To the pain of the past.
We don’t have to feel it anymore.

FEMALE SOLOIST 1
Love is an open door,
Love is an open door.

FEMALE SOLOIST 2
Love is an open door.

(Music shifts to “You’ll Be in My Heart.”)

MALE SOLOIST
You’ll be in my heart,
No matter what they say.
You’ll be here in my heart,
Always.

(Music fanfare. Music shifts to “I See the Light.”)

RAPUNZEL AND FLYNN RIDER
And at last I see the light,

FLYNN RIDER
And it’s like the fog has lifted.

RAPUNZEL AND FLYNN RIDER
And at last I see the light,

RAPUNZEL
And it’s like the sky is new.

RAPUNZEL AND FLYNN RIDER
And it’s warm and real and bright,
And the world has somehow shifted.
All at once, everything is different,
Now that I see you.

(Music shifts to Mulan theme.)

FA ZHOU
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.

(Music shifts to action theme.)

URSULA
(Evil laugh.)

(Music shifts to “The Stampede.”)

SCAR
(Roar.)

(Music shifts to “He’s a Pirate.” Music shifts to “Go the Distance.”)

MUFASA
Look inside yourself. You are more than what you have become. Remember who you are. Remember. Remember.

FEMALE SOLOIST
I have often dreamed of a far off place,
Where a hero’s welcome would be waiting for me.

MALE SOLOIST
Where the crowds would cheer
When they see my face.

BOTH
And a voice keeps saying,
“This is where I’m meant to be.”

CHORUS
I will beat the odds,
I can go the distance!
I will face the world,
Fearless, proud, and strong.

I will please the gods,
I can go the distance!
‘Til I find my hero’s welcome,
Right where I belong.

(Music shifts back to “Happily Ever After” theme.)

NARRATOR
And so, our journey comes to an end. But yours continues on. Grab ahold of your dreams and make them come true. For you are the key to unlocking your own magic. Now go. Let your dreams guide you. Reach out and find your Happily Ever After.

FEMALE SOLOIST (ANGIE KEILHAU)
The battles, the stories,
The losses and all the glories.

MALE SOLOIST (JORDAN FISHER)
We’re changed by the way
We live every day.
Just look up and reach to the sky.

BOTH
We all have the courage to fly!

CHORUS
You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly! You can fly!
You can fly!

(TINKER BELL flies overhead.)

CHORUS
The story comes alive!

MALE SOLOIST
(When we look inside)

CHORUS
A new adventure, there in your eyes.

BOTH SOLOISTS
(There in your eyes!)

CHORUS
It’s just beginning,
Feel your heart beat faster.
Reach out and find your…
Reach out and find your…
Reach out and find your
Happily ever after!

And now I know…

CINDERELLA AND PRINCE CHARMING
The key to all heaven is mine!

Someday, my prince will come.

And how thrilling that moment will be,
When the prince of my dreams comes to me.

I know you,
I walked with you once upon a dream.

PRINCE PHILIP
But if I know you,
I know what you’ll do.

You’ll love me at once,
The way you did once…

Upon a dream.

Oh my! That was so romantic. Why it’s just like a dream come true!

Your rainbow will come smiling through.

If you keep on believing,
The dream that you wish will come true.
Your dream will come true!

(Applause. MICKEY, MINNIE, PRINCES, and PRINCESSES exit. GOOFY and DONALD enter.)

GOOFY
And they all lived happily ever after. Gawrsh, that was some dream! (Laughs.)

DONALD
Kinda mushy if you ask me.

GOOFY
Y’know, Donald, that sure was purty. But if I had a dream come true, my dream would be full of fun and adventure.

(PETER PAN enters.)

PETER PAN
Did someone say “adventure”?

GOOFY
Gawrsh, that was me! (Laughs.)

PETER PAN
Well then, adventure it is!

DONALD
Here we go again…

PETER PAN
So hoist the anchor! Raise the sails! Fall in line, ya swabs. It’s time to set sail for adventure. An adventure that begins with…

(ENSEMBLE enters, dressed as pirates. WENDY is with them.)

ENSEMBLE
Pirates!
Oh, a pirates life is a wonderful life,
A-rovin’ over the sea.
Give me a career as a buccaneer,
It’s the life of a pirate for me!
Oh, the life of a pirate for me!

(ENSEMBLE dances and dresses up DONALD as CAPTAIN HOOK and GOOFY as MR. SMEE. DONALD scares GOOFY)

GOOFY
Yeow!

PETER PAN
Hey, Captain Hook—en garde!

GOOFY
Get him, Donald—I mean, get him, Captain Hook!

DONALD
En garde! Ha!

(DONALD and PETER PAN sword fight. DONALD wins. The ENSEMBLE lifts him up on their shoulders.)

ENSEMBLE
We’re told to attack a thousand ships for darling Captain Hook!

PIRATE
It seems we always make these trips to crook what we can crook.

TWO PIRATES
We have to sing yo-ho, yo-ho,

PIRATE
We sing it whether we come or go!

WOMEN
‘Cause that’s the only song we know!

ENSEMBLE
We’re pirating our ships.

We work for many a thief.
We plunder for many a crook.
There’s never a gent so elegant
As the elegant Captain Hook! Yo-ho!

(CAPTAIN HOOK and MR. SMEE enter.)

CAPTAIN HOOK
You called?

GOOFY
Gawrsh… It’s the real Captain Hook!

CAPTAIN HOOK
And what are you suppose to be?

DONALD
We’re pirates!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Pirates! Did you hear that, Smee? They’re pirates!

MR. SMEE
Ah, well, Captain. I heard ’em—pirates!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Well then, if they were really pirates, then I suppose they’d know how to fight like a pirate! En garde!

GOOFY AND DONALD
Whoa!!

(CAPTAIN HOOK and MR. SMEE chase DONALD and GOOFY)

CAPTAIN HOOK
(Laughs.) Run you cowards. Run! (Laughs.)

PETER PAN
I’ll accept your challenge, Hook!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Peter Pan?!

PETER PAN
En garde!

(PETER PAN and CAPTAIN HOOK sword fight.)

MR. SMEE
Give it to ‘im, Captain! Ooh, this is fun!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Smee, you quivering idiot! Get the girl!

(MR. SMEE captures WENDY.)

MR. SMEE.
Oh, Captain! I’ve caught her, Captain!

DONALD
Oh, no ya don’t!

(DONALD rescues WENDY from MR. SMEE then grabs a large clock.)

CAPTAIN HOOK
I’ve got you this time, Peter Pan!

PETER PAN
I say, Captain, do you hear something?

CAPTAIN HOOK
What?!

PETER PAN
Do you think it could be your old friend, the crocodile?

CAPTAIN HOOK
Crocodile?! Where? I don’t see him!

PETER PAN
Is he over there?

CAPTAIN HOOK
Ooh, where?! Smee!

PETER PAN
Or over there?

CAPTAIN HOOK
Smee!!!

PETER PAN
Or right behind you?!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Smeeeeeee!!!!

(CAPTAIN HOOK breaks down while everyone laughs at him.)

GOOFY
It’s just a clock…

(GOOFY and the ENSEMBLE laugh, but their laughter is interrupted by MALEFICENT’s evil cackle. MICKEY enters.)

MICKEY
Gosh! What was that?

(MALEFICENT enters.)

MALEFICENT
Well, well. Quite a glittering assemblage. I was quite distressed at not receiving an invitation. An oversight, I’m sure… Nevertheless, I too have a dream to share.

MINNIE
You… you do?

MALEFICENT
Oh, yes, my dear, I do. Listen well! (Thunder claps.) You see my friends, the time has come to bring my gift—my wish—to you. Starting today, this kingdom will change to the place where nightmares come true! (Evil laugh.) Run! Run! (Evil laugh.)

DONALD
Wait a minute, what about the dreams?

MINNIE
Donald!

MALEFICENT
Poor little duck! Huh, no one truly believes in dreams any longer—which is why it is a perfect time for me to return to power!

DONALD
But believe in dreams.

MALEFICENT
That you believe in dreams is of very little consequence!

DONALS
But everyone believes! Right, Mickey?

MICKEY
Donald, that’s it! As long as we all believe, then the power of dreams will always triumph.

MALEFICENT
Ha! Oh, this is priceless!

MICKEY
Listen everybody—we all need to work together! On the count of three, let’s all find the magic inside our hearts and dream together one more time. Remember, reach deep inside, and say over and over, real loud, “Dreams come true!” Ready? One, two, three!

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!

MICKEY
That’s right!

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!

MALEFICENT
What?

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!

MICKEY
Keep going!

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!

MR. SMEE
C-c-c-captain?

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!

CAPTAIN HOOK
What are they doing?

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come True!

(Fireworks go off.)

MICKEY
Hot dog! That’s it!

CAPTAIN HOOK
Mr. Smee, I believe it’s time we took our leave of this  little party.

MR. SMEE
Wait for meeeeee!

(CAPTAIN HOOK and MR. SMEE exit.)

MALEFICENT
Imbeciles! And you—you may have the power of dreams on your side this time, but just you wait! One day the kingdom will stop believing. Then all will be lost! Remember, you haven’t seen the last of me! (Evil cackle as she disappears.)

MICKEY
You did it! It worked!

MINNIE
By believing in your dreams, you saved the day!

GOOFY
Gawrsh, Donald. That sure was somethin’ standing up to that mean ol’ Maleficent!

DONALD
It was nothing.

MINNIE
Well, Donald, because of you, we all still have our dreams.

(MINNIE kisses DONALD on the cheek.)

DONALD
Awww…

MICKEY
That’s right, Donald! By remembering about the power of dreams, you reminded us all that when we believe in ourselves, and our friends, and our family—why, there’s nothin’ we can’t do! Gee, when  you find the dream inside your heart, anything is possible!

ENSEMBLE
Dreams come true!
Dreams come true!
Dream, dream, dream!

(ENSEMBLE dances.)

Any dream is possible.
Wishes do come true.
You can reach the stars if you just believe.
Share the magic in your heart.
There’s nothing you can’t do.
Oh, anything is possible,
So find a dream inside of you.

(PRINCES and PRINCESSES enter.)

PRINCES AND PRINCESSES
There’s enchantment to be found in every fairytale.

MICKEY, MINNIE, DONALD, AND GOOFY
There are journeys that await you and your friends.

PETER PAN
Seize the moment!
Let your fantasies and dreams set sail.

Discover a place where the fun never ends!

Any dream is possible.

You can reach the stars if you just believe.

Every day, discover dreams
You never dreamed before.

Make believe, and let your imagination soar!
Let it soar!

(ENSEMBLE sings “ah”s while MICKEY and MINNIE are lifted into the air.)

Make a wish, a fantastical dream.
A magical wish waiting for you.
Dream a dream. Look to the sky.
Wherever you are, wish on a star,
And find a dream.
Find a dream!
Find your dream come true!

Make a wish, a fantastical dream.
A magical wish waiting for you.
