If you are going to be visiting Disney World between January 17 – February 24, 2020, you’re going to want to visit Epcot. This year’s International Festival of the Arts is filled with show-stopping Broadway stars that are taking the stage. It celebrates the very best in visual, culinary and performing arts by bringing in professional artists to share their talent and expertise. Disney on Broadway concert series will be returning to the festival this year with three daily performances headlined by Broadway stars who reprise favorite songs from past performances in award-winning shows.
Some of the first performers to grace the stage of America Gardens Theater for this fan-favorite concert series will be none other than Heidi Blickenstaff, best known for her role as everyone’s favorite Sea Witch. She starred as Ursula in Disney on Broadway’s “The Little Mermaid.” Joining alongside Heidi will be, Tony Award nominee, Gavin Lee. His Broadway performance as Bert in Disney’s “Mary Poppins” earned him the nomination and most recently played Lumière in the 25th-anniversary production of “Disney’s Beauty and the Beast.”
The duo will perform five nights of shows beginning Jan. 18, including a special performance alongside fellow Broadway legends Alton Fitzgerald White and Kissy Simmons.
