Disney on Ice

Disney on Ice is a series of touring ice shows produced by Feld Entertainment under agreement with The Walt Disney Company. Aimed primarily at children, the shows feature figure skaters dressed as Disney cartoon characters in performances that each derive their music and plot from elements collected from various Disney films and properties; the "stars" of the show are credited as the Disney characters themselves, performing their parts in mock cameos, while the skaters performing remain anonymous.

History
Soon after Mattel's Irvin & Kenneth Feld Productions purchased Ice Follies and Holiday on Ice in 1979, the company approached Disney about doing a Disney-related show on ice. Feld Entertainment acquired a license to produce and present Disney-themed ice shows, and the productions began in 1981, under the name Walt Disney's World on Ice. The name was changed to Disney on Ice in 1998.

Shows
Disney on Ice runs over 8 production and touring companies at any given time. The shows have played all over the world, including the Americas, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. New shows debut and play two legs in North America for two years, and then head on to Japan for a third year, The United Kingdom, and other parts of the world for a fourth year. They would usually then come to the U.S. for another year, and then to any other places for a sixth year.
