Shanghai, May 27, 2024 – As Shanghai Disney Resort continues to bring new experiences for guests, and expands its magical entertainment offerings, a brand new live show, The Adventure of Rhythm, is coming to the Storyhouse Stage in Adventure Isle at Shanghai Disneyland. Set to open from June 3 to October 7, 2024 (except for special events), with no extra tickets needed, this new in-door live stage show will take guests on an adventurous musical journey around the world, combining different music styles with distinct rhythms, live performances, beloved Disney stories and rarely-seen Disney characters. The Adventure of Rhythm has also been uniquely constructed in a way that guests may experience new surprises each time they watch the show.
The Adventure of Rhythm tells an original story of a team of archeologists who specialize in researching music, including instruments from cultures around the world, and who are thrilled to be in Adventure Isle to share their stories and rhythms from their travels with the adventurers in the audience. As the team set off on a journey to find the “Rhythm of Adventure” with an original musical number performed by the company of explorer dancers and live drummers, guests will be transported on the wings of music to a variety of classic and new Disney stories taking place at different corners of the world.
Music has always been a key element in Disney storytelling for more than 100 years and plays a major role in making the characters resonate across generations. The Adventure of Rhythm ties together a series of musical production moments reflecting five music styles: regional, big band, hip hop, Latin jazz and pop music. Some of the most memorable tunes from beloved Walt Disney Animation Studios films Moana, Mulan, Pinocchio, The Aristocats, The Lion King, Aladdin, Wreck-It Ralph, and Pixar Animation Studios’ Turning Red, will transfix the audience with compelling narrative lyrics and catchy melodies.
What makes the show even more special is that guests may have the opportunity to see different versions of the show when each of the five music styles takes them on one of two adventures. Each adventure offers a different lineup of characters, providing guests with new surprises when watching this dazzling show.
During the show, Disney characters, including those rarely seen in the park, whose stories are evoked by the musical tunes will come to life before guests’ eyes, delivering a message of optimism that music is in all of us! Depending on which path the adventure takes, guests will be able to enjoy heartwarming moments with some of their favorite friends, including Marie, Genie, and Aladdin.
Starting June 3, 2024, The Adventure of Rhythm is set to become a wonderful addition to park offerings for guests to enjoy during their summer visits and further enrich the guest experience during peak season. Guests of all ages will be immersed in the irresistible charisma of Disney songs and stories while freeing the music within their hearts.
*As with other live entertainment in the park, this live entertainment show may be adjusted, suspended, or canceled due to unforeseen conditions.
