Disney’s Newest Royalty, Princess Tiana, Makes Debut at Walt Disney World Resort
November 15, 2009 by Darren Wittko
Walt Disney World guests are being treated to first-ever appearances by Princess Tiana, star of the upcoming Walt Disney Pictures
animated feature film “The Princess and the Frog.”
Besides meet-and-greets with guests, Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen and other characters from the motion picture star in “Tiana’s
Showboat Jubilee!,” a rousing, colorful procession with a jazz-filled Mardi Gras theme. The good times roll as festively dressed, bead-
tossing revelers lead Magic Kingdom guests to the Liberty Belle Riverboat dock.
The party moves onboard and the Liberty Belle paddlewheels her way along the river with singing and dancing to the sounds of a six-
member jazz band. Nearly two dozen Disney dancers join 30 randomly chosen park guests to be part of each show. Original songs
composed by Randy Newman for the film liven the production, which is performed three times daily. Daytime pyrotechnics and
whimsical puppetry round out the spirited, 15-minute production
The 10-week experience at Walt Disney World Resort will run through Jan. 3, 2010. “Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee!” also dazzles guests
at Disneyland Park in California.
