IMPORTANT! For families trying to coordinate seeing their children perform in person at Disney: NOTE: The specific performance dates and times are controlled by Disney, so they are TENTATIVE. Once we have applied to Disney and the performances are officially scheduled, they are unlikely to change. HOWEVER, it is possible due to unforeseeable circumstances like Disney's logistics, weather, mechanical breakdowns, and more. Unfortunately, things change and there is no guarantee that your child's performance will 100% happen on the day they have scheduled. Dates and times can be bumped for a number of reasons that are out of our control.
If parents are planning to go down to Florida to see their child perform, there have been cases where the performance dates and times have altered by Disney and parents have missed their child's performance.
In order to keep costs down, we will be leaving VERY EARLY in the morning and we will room Quint Occupancy.
