Mickey's Rockin' Roadshow

Since we got digital cable and the DVR back in May, the kids have fallen in love with the Playhouse Disney channel. All three kids enjoy the cartoon Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Back in July, when they announced a live Mickey show was coming to the WFCU, we had to get tickets. Six months later, and it was finally time to see the show!

Opening Act: The premise is Mickey and his friends are putting on a talent show, and are travelling around to different places to find performers for the show.



on the Mickey Bus

Got a flat tire? Turn your bus into a hot air balloon!

the shoe shop run by Cinderella and her mean stepsisters

visiting Buzz, Woody, and Jessie out West; rope and hula-hoop tricks

Woody and Jessie's hoe-down

Buzz Lightyear with his alien buddies

Buzz doing his juggling tricks

Cinderella singing, with her back-up singers and dancers

Tigger doing his bouncing routine

This was the kids' favourite part. They all got out of their seats and jumped like crazy to the music, with Tigger.

The Grand Finale
(The floor-level audience had inches of ticker tape dropped on them!)

Overall, the Andrea and Kevin had a great time. (Unfortunately, Ryan was still not well, so we decided to leave him with Gram and Papa.) There was some drama throughout the evening, thanks to Mommy forgetting her purse at work over the weekend. ALL my credit cards and ID were safely, but inaccessibly, locked in my desk at work. I needed those things to pick up our tickets at will call. The lady at the window almost refused me the tickets, but Andrea was standing right there, and she started crying her poor little heart out: "Why can't we go?" Daddy came up and said to Andrea, very seriously, "I don't know. The lady won't give us the tickets. Why don't you ask her why we can't have the tickets?" The lady was totally mad, but how could she refuse a child in tears? For once, Andrea's melodramatics worked to our advantage! We got into the show just in time. ;)
