Animagique was a live show at Walt Disney Studios Park that took place in "Animagique Theater", at the entrance of Toon Studio . The show closed on January 31 , 2016 to make way for "Mickey and the Magician ", which began on July 2 , 2016.
Summary [ ]
Guests are invited to watch a show about Disney Classics. It opens with Mickey and Donald teaching a drawing course in an art studio. At its far end is a door leading to the Cinematheque, which is strictly forbidden, as Mickey instructs Donald. However, after Mickey's departure, Donald decides he can open the door a little, without Mickey even knowing.
As he does so, a flash of light takes Donald into the film vault. He then encounters scenes from various films including Dumbo , The Jungle Book , Pinocchio (formerly), The Little Mermaid , and The Lion King .
At the end, Donald tells Mickey about his amazing journey through this films, although Mickey doesn't believe him until Baloo , King Louie , and Rafiki walk into the room.

Trivia [ ]
Animagique puppeteers undertake intense training classes to co-ordinate and synchronise their movements in complete darkness. Before the opening of the park in 2002, they even followed classes of Taï Chi to perfect their perception of space.
Mickey and Sebastian are the only two characters speaking French in the show. Other characters Donald, Pink Elephants , Baloo, King Louie, Young Simba , and Zazu are all speaking English in the show.
Even though Mickey spoke French during the show in the original show from 2002 he was briefly voiced by Wayne Allwine during the Animagique Song.[ 2]
Several months after opening, the show briefly closed to allow for a reworking that included replacing an original Pinocchio scene, featuring Monstro the whale, but it was scrapped shortly as it was deemed too scary for children, so it was replaced by The Little Mermaid.
Each returning vocal song featured in the second version of the show, except for I Wanna Be Like You , all have their instrumental borrowed from past Disney Parks live performances: Pink Elephants on Parade was featured at Viva! Magic , Under the Sea was featured at Voyage of the Little Mermaid , and I Just Can't Wait to Be King was featured at The Legend of the Lion King .
The young Simba , young Nala , and Zazu puppets all came from Magic Kingdom 's former show The Legend of the Lion King .
