Dreams Article To unveil our Where Dreams Come True artistry—and announce The first sight was the Disneyland ® plaque written by Walt Disney himself: “Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy.” One wall glowed with guest home movies. Another shone with kids’ letters to Disney Characters. A sculptor fashioned Disney sandcastles. A painter rendered Mickey Mouse on canvas. Attending were celebrities, journalists—and even two Disney Passholders. Passholders Mike and Carol Scopa loved that everything focused on the magic between Guests and Cast Members. “I can walk through a Disney Park and the Cast Members say, ‘Hi Mike! How’s it goin’?’” said Mike. “They really go all out for us.” look for the More dreams on the way SECRET Learn secret facts about our new attractions. Disney Destinations President Jay Rasulo announced new attractions and shows (including those on the next page), and a year in which Disney Cast Members will help dreams—of all shapes and sizes—come true for guests. “We always make friends with Cast Members on every visit,” added Carol. “They’re going to be excited to make new dreams come true this year!” 2 New! at Epcot Nemo’s been found ... ©Disne y/Pixar in a great new attraction Wondering what happened after Marlin, Dory and the undersea gang found Nemo?

Every time Dory sees Nemo, but she keeps forgetting and can’t tell Marlin.” The attraction is brimming with memorable moments. “When you encounter the jellyfish, they’ll light up as Dory bounces over them,” Alex adds. “There’ll be a pretty scene where everyone’s mesmerized by the lights of the anglerfish. And when the sharks pop out from the ruins and tease you, they claim they have no intention of eating Marlin, though he doesn’t quite believe them.” The most amazing part of the new attraction will occur when your clamobile enters the gigantic aquarium where Nemo and all his friends will appear to actually swim alongside the real-life creatures of the coral reef. The fun continues with the totally awesome Turtle Talk With Crush, also inspired by Disney’s presentation of Pixar’s Finding Nemo, where Guests or kids can ask questions of the gnarly dude of the deep, as well as a whole ocean of interactive exhibits featuring Nemo’s pals. mickey monitor news New! Gotta Sing! ©Disney/ Pixar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park Gotta Dance! Gotta Swim! Theater in the Wild at Disney’s Animal Kingdom® Theme Park will become a magical undersea world—as well as an indoor theater—when Finding Nemo—The Musical splashes down in late 2006. Inspired by Disney’s presentation of Pixar’s Finding Nemo, the new Broadway-caliber show combines the talents of Walt Disney Creative Entertainment, Walt Disney Imagineering, and a team of Tony Award ® winners, plus astonishing puppetry, effects and acrobatics. “Our master puppeteer is Michael Curry, who you know from The Lion King on Broadway and Tapestry of Nations at Epcot®,” said Disney show producer Taz Marosi. “For the first time, we’re not hiding the puppeteers. At various times, you’ll SECRET The theater was home to Tarzan Rocks!, and Journey Into the Jungle Book stage shows, but now will be entirely enclosed and airconditioned with enhanced lighting and other effects. see the actor, the puppet, and both of them together.” At the heart of it all will be warm, witty new songs by Tony winner Robert Lopez that will add even more dimension to the story you loved in the film. When Marlin advises his son Nemo to avoid danger, he sings, “We swim out, we swim back in!” This leads to “Big Blue World,” which is sure to become a classic. Our favorite forgetful fish trills her own “Dory’s Ditty.” Toe-tapping sharks belt out “Fish Are Friends, Not Food.” Little lost Nemo sings the plaintive, “Where’s My Dad?” Dory’s advice in song to Marlin is “Just Keep Swimming.” And it’s beach party time when Crush’s nest of turtle dudes rock to “Go With the Flow.” 4 Big stars perform for your little ones−live!

After years of fun with her girlfriends at ABC Super Soap Weekend® presented by Colgate® Total®—which you can enjoy this November 11 & 12—Katherine Laguna actually decided to become a Disney Cast Member. “That’s the reason,” the 19-year-old Disney-MGM Studios hostess told us. “I love this park because they have the event here!” Over the years, Katherine and her girlfriends have bonded with fellow fans, shared laugh-filled memories and met daytime stars. “It’s just so much fun,” she said. “We like to get up early and plan the whole day together—what stars we might meet, all the events to do—and we have a great time. We can get pretty silly, too!” You can see many stars at once in the motorcade down Hollywood Boulevard. You may even get to act in scenes with TV hunks and divas at I Wanna Be a Soap Star, plus see interviews and previews at the Wide World Of Soaps Live! Talk Show. “The Street Jam is like a big nighttime finale,” she explained. “The stars sing, dance and let loose. They put on a great show.” Sharing the soaptacular fun bridges generations, too. Karen Foster of Plano, Texas, loves sharing the Weekend with her lovely daughter, Amy. “I first heard of it in a soap magazine. And we flew out —just the girls—for a long weekend.” Karen also recommends a Disney Resort stay: “Then you plan on being there when the gates open and do as much as you can.” “I look forward to seeing new faces every year,” Karen smiles. “And catching up with the old ones, too!” Find out more at abc.com, disneyworld.com/supersoap weekend or at the ABC Super Soap Weekend Hotline Recording at 407-397-6808. 6 SEPT 8 SEPT 9 An award-winning night so bright with music and joy To honor over two decades of delighting more than 900,000 attendees and over 110 top Christian music artists, Night of Joy recently received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Gospel Music Association.

Never in a million years did I think I would get to do music for a living, and get to play the same places as [artists] I had looked up to. And then last year we played in front of [Cinderella] Castle—I couldn’t believe it! “The entire family comes out, from kids to grandparents. For us, seeing all of them worshipping God together is a really cool thing.” Also back is Rebecca St. James, Dove Award winner for her work on The Chronicles of Narnia CD, inspired by the Oscar ®-winning Disney/Walden film (and #1 DVD of the year). “Disney is a real treat for me,” she told us. “I remember the first year that I performed at Night of Joy I was [in Tomorrowland®].

It’s turned into one of our most popular Disney events. According to entertainment producer, Laura Offerdahl, this year’s MNSSHP (as Disney insiders call it) is even better than ever. “We’ve had so much fun dreaming up the Halloween parade. This year, we’re very excited about a whimsical new candy factory float at the end. It features Goofy ruling over his own candy squad.” Laura also told us of new “treat trails” that let Guests trick-or-treat with Disney characters. There’s also a production in which the villains take over the castle stage then mix and mingle with the Guests. Of course, visitors can trick-or-treat for candy throughout the park and enjoy popular Magic Kingdom® attractions. This year also marks the return of Disney’s one-of-a-kind Halloween fireworks show. It’s incredible! As always, Guests are welcome to arrive decked out in costume—many of the Disney characters will be dressed in theirs.

A special “Cool Dude Hero” treatment was also offered to 5-year-old John. “We just wanted John to feel part of the experience,” said mom Rue Ann. “They said they could do his hair with some gel.
