Disney
holds a special place in everyone’s hearts, young and old. And
almost every year since 1990, the Disney on Ice show has captivated
audiences from all ages and from all walks of life.
This
year, Disney on Ice presents Princesses and Heroes, another
spectacular show that will truly delight, excite, and enthrall
everyone. Eight Disney Princesses, Ariel, Cinderella, Belle, Jasmine,
Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel and Tiana and their respective
handsome princes will tell the audience their inspiring stories
through artistic skating and graceful acrobatics and prove once more
that wishes do come true for those who believe.
Even
for some of our local celebrities, a Disney on Ice show is nothing
short of magical. From the elegantly-designed costumes, magnificent
fairytale sets, and charming characters, this annual ice show is
something they also look forward to. But the Disney on Ice experience
does not stop with the show itself. “It’s been a long time since
I last saw Disney on Ice...I was probably first year high school or
grade six. I remember there was a flashlight, Minnie Mouse was what I
got, na parang umiikot-ikot siya. And then there was a mug,
and there was cotton candy!” says actress Iza
Calzado. A Disney on Ice show
can also bring you back to your memorable childhood years. “Oh I
need to see Disney on Ice again!” Iza adds.
Singer-actress
Karylle remembers
seeing a Disney on Ice show when she treated a few lucky kids from
her chosen charity. But when asked about her favorite Disney memory,
she fondly recalls her serendipitous meet-up with her favorite
princess, Cinderella. “I went to Disneyland recently, and I met
Cinderella. I met her, and she asked me where I was from. I said I
was from the Philippines, and she was like, ‘That’s a beautiful
kingdom!’ so she’s now my friend. And then she told me to pose
like a princess, and when I left I curtsied, and she curtsied back
and I was like, ‘Hah, I’m a princess,’” she shares with a
delighted laugh.
Miss
Universe Philippines 2012 Janine Tugonon, on the other hand,
could not help but admire the skill and grace of the performers when
she saw Disney on Ice last year. “Sobrang gusto ko yung
mag-partners. Sina Princess Jasmine and Aladdin, sina
Ariel and Prince Eric, and yung others. Nanonood kasi ako
dati ng mga ice skating competitions sa TV, so nag-enjoy
ako panoorin yung ginawa nila dun. Nagalingan talaga ako kasi
hindi lang simpleng skating yung pinakita nila; talagang may
turns and lifts,” she says.
Already
a mom of two, TV host Christine
Bersola-Babao still treasures
every Disney on Ice show she watched, from when she was a young girl
until now. “Even when I was in high school, di
ba meron nang Disney on Ice
nun? Dinadala ako ng
mommy ko.
And we’ve been watching Disney on Ice when it’s shown here.
You’re planting happy memories in a child’s mind every time you
bring them to Disney on Ice,” she says.
Singer
JM
Rodriguez
reveals that this favorite Disney Christmas hero is Scrooge. “I
played the young Scrooge in a musical for Repertory. From watching
Disney shows, I learned that wishes can come true if you believe,
focus and work on it.”
