Disney Brings Toy Story to the High Seas

It'll be one of the largest productions ever developed for a cruise ship, says Disney. And like nothing cruisers have ever seen.

The Disney Cruise Line will announce today that it has adapted the Disney-Pixar animated film Toy Story into an elaborate musical that will debut on the 2,700-passenger Disney Wonder this spring .

"Toy Story -- The Musical represents the next generation of staged entertainment for Disney Cruise Line," says the line's president, Tom McAlpin. World-class entertainment, he adds, is what "sets us apart from the rest of the cruise industry."

The show will take place once per cruise in the ship's 977-seat Walt Disney Theatre. It includes eight musical numbers that follow the storyline of the original film. It's only the second time Disney has adapted a Disney-Pixar film for the stage (Finding Nemo -- The Musical debuted at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Florida last year).

The Disney Wonder operates three- and four-night cruises from Florida to The Bahamas.
