Hi I'm Fiona Pearce and I lead a wonderful team at Disney Theatrical here in London who have put
0:08
this wonderful summer pop-up together. This is the second year that we've done a pop-up in Covent
0:14
Garden. Last year we featured Aladdin and Lion King and we had over 45,000 people through the
0:20
door. This year we've gone even bigger and we're able to feature the Lion King in its 20th year in
0:26
London as well as Mary Poppins which is coming back to the West End this autumn. We've got the
0:33
final weeks of Aladdin so we're going out with some great interactive gaming and we have the
0:38
first look of Frozen for the West End which opens at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane next autumn
0:43
and we're able customers will be able to come in and get their photo taken in an amazing ice
0:49
adventure. So every day we have something new for people to experience we've got puppetry workshops
0:55
We've got workshops with some of our Disney teaching artists. We've got some performances from cast members of Aladdin and the Lion King
1:03
You can have an interactive experience with a circle of life in a virtual reality headset
1:10
And there's plenty of kite-making workshops with Mary Poppins. And lots of fun, basically, for people of all ages
1:17
So from wherever you are this is the place to be this summer So the pop shop is on Longacre right in the heart of Covent Garden in between Leicester Square Tube and Covent Garden Tube And it open every day of the week

What's up? I am Trevor Dion Nicholas. I play the genie at Disney's Aladdin here on the West End

Oh, right now we are here in the, today we're here in the Disney pop-up shop. And we've got all kinds of fantastic stuff going on
1:47
We've got stuff from Frozen, Lion King, Mary Poppins, of course, Aladdin
1:51
And now we've got all the magic you could imagine from anything Disney-related. Well, last year we had a blast with a Disney pop-up last year
1:57
We really got it set up. We figured out what it was and what the potential was. And this year everything's going further
2:02
And so it's a really cool way to step inside of the shows that you love
2:06
and to really experience them on a new way, especially shows that aren't even open yet with Mary Poppins coming soon
2:11
And then Frozen, which, I mean, we've barely had a taste of. So it's like, yeah, it's all the excitement that you could want in one place
2:16
This is something for everybody. And so, like me personally, I love the costumes
2:20
And you've got a variety of Lion King specific costumes on display here
2:23
So like all of your little fans, your big fans, everybody's going to have something that they can enjoy here at the pop-up shop
2:28
My favorite Disney film, I mean, of course, it's Aladdin. There's a lamp in everything. It's Aladdin
2:35
She's taking a picture of the lamp because she loves the lamp. Like Aladdin's the best. So like, is there any question
