The magic is complimented by appearances from Disney Princesses Belle and Snow White and Mickey's pals from Toontown - Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy.

Zak Williams's interactive style as an illusionist adds another dimension to the show as he brings children up on stage to assist in the magic. Whether it's making a Magician's Apprentice tissue paper hat or inspecting a trunk for "The Fastest Escape in the World," children in the audience have the opportunity to become part of the show. No matter if they are on stage or in their seats, children are given an unforgettable experience as magician's helpers in Disney Live! presents Mickey's Magic Show.
