The production features excellent illusions that are well presented. As one would expect, there are dancers, musical numbers, excellent lighting and great props and sets. It’s a professional, high-level production that lives up to standards of Disney and the art of magic.
The show has been clearly designed towards younger
children with short attention spans. Brad and Benny are a great double act and
fantastic Magicians with zany, wacky and over-the-top personas of Saturday
morning television hosts. I recommend the show for pre-school children up to 10
years also for the big kids at heart so the show is great for families.
At the morning show that I attended, the crowd was filled
with excited young children all waving Disney Magic wands or wearing Mickey
hats it really was a great site to see.
The
illusions are well designed, lit and executed; the show features the usual cast
of Disney characters: Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy, as
well as Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Jasmine, Belle and Snow White. A
running theme is Benny’s attempt to learn and perform magic. As Minnie says to
Benny, “Never give up...everyone has magic inside of them.” And as you would
expect--this is a Disney production--Benny does rise to the task.’ Never Give
Up’ a great lesson for any child to learn.
The first half of the show features Disney set
pieces and songs and creative adaptations of classic illusions, while the
second half, after intermission, features more sequences where the illusionists
competently perform stage standards such as linking rings, sawing in half and
metamorphosis.
The show featured comedy, singing, dancing, magic
beautiful costumes and set design. For my Nephew this was the first time he had
seen Disney characters up close and he was glued to his seat for the whole
show.
During the interval the children excitedly made
their way to the lavish stalls set up in the lobby.
There were some fantastic Disney goodies for sale
but I must point out rather highly priced especially if you have more than one
child to buy for. Popcorn was on sale for £7.00, Snow Cones £8.00 which I
purchased as they came in a stunning Mickey Mouse cup that we now use to eat
ice-cream out of.
Light up toys were on sale which were hugely
popular but were heavily priced between £12.00 and £14.00
After seeing Mickey’s magic show I will defiantly
be visiting The Motor point arena again in the very near future to be swept
away by the Disney Magic.
A great treat for your little Disney fans
