Tokyo DisneySea’s Special Event
Disney's Rhythms of the World
From Tuesday, February 1 through Monday, May 9, 2005

Disney's Rhythms of the World, which was received favorably last year at Tokyo DisneySea, will return on February 1, 2005 with even hotter contents.

Disney's Rhythms of the World is a 25 minute performance set in the melting pot New York; the show integrates through uplifting rhythms and dance energies created by cultures and traditions of four continents: the Central America; Africa; Europe; and Asia.

DisneySea's Mediterranean Harbor and American Waterfront are adorned with colorful banners on which Disney characters representing each continent are drawn and with decorations, which depict four continents in four different colors: emerald green, orange; purple; and red.

As if drawn by the sound of Mickey Mouse’s clarinet solo performance, New Yorkers gather at the stage to start Disney's Rhythms of the World. The hosts of the party, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, sing the splendor of New York in which diverse cultures merge.

Next in line are Disney pals that lead entertainers themed to four continents. Pluto expresses the passionate Americas, Goofy expresses the wilds of Africa, Donald expresses the lively Europe and Chip ‘n Dale express the mysterious Asian cultures and traditions with uplifting dance performed to distinctive rhythms generated by various instruments. Soon, four different rhythms merge into a single rhythm, which permeates the entire Waterfront Park, and it is time for guests to join. With Disney pals and dancers, guests rock to the dance beat of four continents. Eventually, the beat and rhythm become one and echo all over the Waterfront Park.

When Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse reappear on stage, the show reaches a climax. The entire Waterfront Park becomes one big wave, and with pyrotechnics and confetti, a spectacular finale begins.

Between February 1 - May 9, 2005, in addition to the entertainment, special merchandise and menus themed to the event will be available at Tokyo DisneySea’s shops and restaurants.

Guests visiting the Park on February 1, 2005, Disney's Rhythms of the World opening day, will each receive an original commemorative pin.
