Having been performed in Cape Town and Johannesburg in South Africa, Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates and Doha in Qatar, the statement said that audiences will be guided on “an enchanting adventure filled with fan-favourite songs, iconic characters, and timeless tales”. The performance is “brought to life by the art of puppetry, magnificent choreography, innovative theatrical techniques and stunning visuals, allowing the audience to experience Disney’s storytelling magic and enjoy quality summer time together as a family”, according to the statement.
