It is the biggest kids' show in the city over the MLK holiday weekend, and the Barclays run's multiple daily times make it easy to fit around a long weekend. Skating-based Disney productions are genuinely athletic, with former competitive skaters in the lead roles. Tickets for the Thursday and Friday shows are markedly cheaper than the weekend.
What to expect
About two hours with a 15-20 minute intermission. Expect light-up merchandise and character meet-and-greet add-ons; lower-bowl seats along the sides give the best view of the choreography.
