More info regarding the show. The "painters" of the show will be skilled in dance, song and acrobatics. They've got some eccentric costumes in the concept art.

Animazement one of my all time favorites!

The Disney Parks Blog has some more info about the show. I'm so glad Princess Fantasy Fair got the boot, a stage show has really been gone from DL for too long. So will this be the first time Yen Sid will be seen in the parks?

The all-new, live stage production, “Mickey and the Magical Map,” debuts this summer at Disneyland park, and today I’m excited to be able to tell you a little more about the show and what you can expect to see when it opens!

The show begins with the timeless character of Yen Sid, the wise sorcerer from Disney’s classic “Fantasia,” who appears within his mysterious workshop to tell us of a wondrous map with the power to take dreamers to any place imaginable. Yen Sid sets his mapmakers to work painting the enormous map – a map so large it covers the entire breadth of the stage.

This is when our hero Mickey Mouse enters, full of curiosity, and dreams of being more than just an apprentice. He’s a bit of a rascal and doesn’t realize what he’s about to get into. When Mickey picks up a brush to paint the map’s one unfinished spot, he soon discovers this is no ordinary map. That’s when his adventures really begin!

I'm excited for this show, there was nothing worse than seeing the theater taken over by a princess meet and greet.
