We’ve got even more exciting news about Disney’s Jollywood Nights!
Now that tickets are available to everyone looking to attend this exclusive special ticketed event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we’re starting to learn even more about the offerings that will be in store for the night’s events. Disney just dropped a few major clues about what kind of entertainment we’ll see at the brand-new party!
When we first heard about Disney’s Jollywood Nights, we were so excited to hear how this brand-new holiday party will offer fresh new entertainment options for us to enjoy during the festive season. Although there weren’t many details released in Disney’s initial announcement, we’ve been sleuthing and found a few more clues you might find interesting.
Disney Auditions has posted new casting calls for select performers for Jollywood Nights. This can tell us about the characters that might show up during the party! We happened upon this one that calls for both dancers and vocalists under seasonal contracts. This posting is for the entertainment that will be offered at Theater of the Stars (where Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage is held during the park day).
It’s calling for the show to be an “all-new stage show rooted in the glitz and glamor of vintage Hollywood television specials, with a contemporary twist of Disney magic.” This is the holiday special that Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy will be hosting.
The casting opportunity goes on to list the skills they’re looking for in vocalists and even a few attributes for characters. It sounds like Tiana will be singing a holiday song in a style similar to Mariah Carey’s iconic “All I Want for Christmas.”
Belle will be there as well, singing “As Long As There’s Christmas” from the animated holiday film.
That doesn’t seem to be all they’ll be singing though! The listing goes on to list other songs to be performed like “All Of Me,” “The Lady Is A Tramp,” “Dig A Little Deeper,” and “Somewhere Over The Rainbow.” Submissions for these roles are going to be accepted through July 19th, 2023, at 3PM EST.
Another offering we’re getting a few more details on is the new show coming to the Hyperion Theater, featuring characters from A Nightmare Before Christmas. This theater is home to the For The First Time In Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along during the park’s daytime hours, so it will certainly be interesting to see how it is transformed for party nights.
This casting call is looking for actors and gives the following synopsis: “Step into the Hyperion Theater which has been transformed to set the stage for a dark, dreamlike adventure that follows two fans through a reality-bending exploration of their favorite film – Tim Burton’s A Nightmare Before Christmas.”
The role listing goes on to talk about singing along to songs from the film and potentially catching a glimpse at rare characters like Jack Skellington and Oogie Boogie.
We hope we continue to see more details unfold the closer we get to the opening night of Disney’s Jollywood Nights since it is a brand-new experience we’ve never seen before.
