Disney Junior – Live on Stage!, Puppet show attraction in Disney theme parks, United States and France
Disney Junior – Live on Stage! is a puppet show attraction in Disney theme parks across the United States and France. Mechanical puppets and digital screens present animated characters from television programming in a performance.
The show began in 2001 as Playhouse Disney Live on Stage at Disney's Hollywood Studios. The cast was updated several times over the years and received its current name in 2011.
Children experience their television characters from the Disney Junior programs in a live setting with music and movement. The performance brings families together as young ones see and engage with their favorite characters in action.
The 24-minute performance takes place in an air-conditioned theater with floor seating arrangements. Families should arrive early to secure spots near the stage, especially during holiday periods.
The performance uses a continuous stage format without curtains, so technicians backstage prepare puppets while another scene runs. Each puppet team works in sync with recorded voices to control character movements in real time.
