A Disney show featuring three classic fairytales is coming to China this summer. But there's a twist. The 70-minute performance, which will include skits from "Snow White," "Cinderella" and "Beauty and the Beast," will be in Chinese.
Forty-five cast members hailing from the United States and Canada will be involved in this 7-week tour covering major Chinese cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and Chongqing. Props and equipment for the show such as costumes, lighting, and even the curtains will be transported from the U.S.
The play in Beijing will be shown at the Beijing Exhibition Theater from July 16 to 20.
