Disney Villains Show (Summer 2025)

[Clive]

Since there'll be musical numbers....probably familiar and popular songs, the show might be well paced.

If they largely stick to flashy musical numbers with solid dancing and choreography, I think this could work as a de facto revue. My fear is they're going to rely too hard on unfunny quips and banter between the live performers and the Magic Mirror as each villain attempts to to clumsily justify why they've been wronged. I just don't see the Disney of 2025 giving this the bite it needs to make the most of its premise... but again, I'd love to be wrong.

This is exactly what I'm expecting.

And getting 40 minutes in air conditioning, off the hot asphalt of Hollywood Studios, sounds wonderful.

But if it has the same bench seating Racing Acadamy had, I don't think my back and butt will agree with that.

The issue, for me, is a show has to be really good to justify that kind of length in a theme park setting. Nemo in DAK and Frozen in DCA delivered, but I'm less confident about this given the premise...

This, too. Even then, they still ended up trimming down Nemo and that was a show that could justify its length.

I'd guess, since this is going to be a big time show, that they'll greatly expand the seating capacity, and probably have individual seating. The way that was set up for Cars, there was a ton of empty space.

The length of the Disney Cruise Line shows are around 45 minutes in length, including a Villains-themed one I saw onboard.

The pace can keep moving fast as they introduce new villains and set pieces, which is what I imagine will happen here.

Literally the teaser we got for this show is amazing. I actually can't wait for this show the musical numbers are going to be awesome and it's already sounding like a great show. Also I love how the stage concept looks. I'll link the teaser for anyone who did not see it also the villains have been announced it's going to be (Maleficent Cruella, and Captain Hook). Along with original scores that include (Rock and Roll gothic, orchestral) and a magic mirror musical number

The official description on the website reads: "Enter the realm of the Magic Mirror—where dozens of villains are trapped! They want the Mirror to reveal the truth: which villain has been treated the most unfairly of them all? Watch as Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook and Maleficent present their cases on stage, persuading with wicked wisdom and wisecracks. Will you be swayed by their hijinks and humor? It’s a spellbinding show with moving music and a most memorable finale—where you help decide who has been treated most unfairly".

Now you have all of the information you need about the show lol. Enjoy the show!
