Dance the Magic is a program where people everywhere can live their dreams of dancing for Disney. With OC Dance, you can learn the parade choreography, build your confidence, improve your dance skills, and best of all, perform in the Disneyland Parade down Main St., U.S.A.! Hundreds upon hundreds of people from all over the world participate each year and we’re so excited to be a part of it again!

For the past few years, OC Dance Productions has participated in Dance the Magic Parades. We are one of the only local studios to attend, so our dancers are already so special! We love working with DTM Staff; they are always so kind and treat us like we are contracted Disneyland performers!

 Don’t know what to expect? Check this out: 

On December 12^th, 2015, you will meet OC Dance Staff and Dance the Magic Staff at the Disneyland Park sometime in the morning (time TBA). You will receive your VIP Lanyard, which you’ll want to keep around your neck so Dance the Magic staff knows you are a VIP Performer for the day. You will have half the day to play around in the park (YAY!), the other half of the day is to rehearse in the official Disney performer backstage lot where the Disneyland performers meet and rehearse for their performances.

Since there are SO MANY dancers who come from all over the world for DTM, everything is done in groups. You will rotate from station to station for group pictures taken by a professional photographer, individual pictures for each dancer, videotaping, and then practicing with DTM staff where performers rehearse backstage to get ready for the parade. Before you know it, it’s time to line up and then it’s SHOW TIME BABY!

Each year we have many of our dancers return again and again for this incredible experience. Just take it from our dancer extraordinaire, China (age 9): 

“I thought it was cool because it was fun meeting new people. It was exciting to dance at Disneyland in front of a lot of people!” 

From China’s mother, Tasha:

“OCDP provided a wonderful opportunity for my daughter. She practiced everyday and loved knowing she would soon be at Disneyland! The staff was professional and fun and made the performance day very special to all the kids. What a wonderful milestone to experience as a child. Loved every moment … Thank you OCDP!”
