Disney Princess on Ice Dare to Dream The performance I went to see was a Disney Princess on Ice Dare to Dream on Thursday, November 17, 2016. There was about seven pieces in this show, which were a little skit at the beginning of the show, the introduction to the show, Princess and the frog, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, Cinderella, Tangled, and the closing performance. At the beginning/ in between each performance, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy came out to introduce each of the performances, while the other people set up the stage with props and backgrounds for the different princesses. In the opening skit there was a lot of space being used when the performers were skating and throwing the small frisbee thing around to entertain …show more content…

For example, in Snow White there was low levels when she was running from the huntsman in the forest and falls as she’s running through the trees. Also, when the old witch poisons her with the apple and she falls into dark sleep, which she can only be awakened from with a “true love's kiss”. The choreographer uses medium levels throughout each of the performances and high levels when each of the Prince’s are dancing with the Princesses and he lifts her up and spins her around in the air. Also in the piece ‘Tangled’ high levels are used when Rapunzel is dancing with Flin and they lift each other up with her hair sort of like in a trapeze show. All the pieces had energy which made each of them very magnificent in their own way. Each of the pieces had a different speed and tempo at different scenes of the performance.

Yet a very nice performance to start the show. In Snow White it begins very dark with the Queen, Snow White's stepmother, speaking to her mirror, then it moves to a colorful and peaceful scene with Snow White singing and dancing the music and lighting in this piece really brings the whole show together and adds style and drama to it. In Cinderella the different music, lighting and costumes really add to the style and drama of the piece. For example, when Cinderella is at home cleaning and singing in her “maid” costume then when her fairy godmother changes her hair and her dress really changes the character and lets the audience see her character in a different way. In Tangled what really put this piece together was the music,costumes and many props and scenes introduced for this Princess’s tale. When Rapunzel is singing and dancing the music is very peaceful and speaks to the audience as when Rapunzel's “mother” is singing it's much darker and vague and shows the audience that she's the bad witch in this piece. The closing piece just really added to the dynamics of the whole performance when all the Disney Princes and Princesses came out in their ball gowns and suits dancing. This piece used up all the ice ring as all the couples
