About the program:

About Disney’s “Muppet Treasure Island”: Ahoy, matey! Get ready for hilarity on the high seas with Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy and all the Muppets in this exciting first-ever action-adventure, inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic pirate tale. When young Jim Hawkins inherits a long-lost treasure map, he hires the great ship Hispaniola to seek his fortune. With the good Captain Smollett (Kermit the Frog) at the helm — and greedy Long John Silver (Tim Curry) at the heart of a dastardly plot — they set sail for adventure only to discover danger at every turn.

About Disney’s “The Aristocats”: In the heart of Paris, a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to Duchess, her high-society cat, and her three little kittens. Laughs and adventure ensue as the greedy, bumbling butler pulls off the ultimate catnap caper in hopes of gaining the inheritance. Now it’s up to the rough-and-tumble alley cat, Thomas O’Malley, and his band of swingin’ jazz cats to save the day.

About Disney’s “Dumbo”: Experience the daring adventures of the world’s only flying elephant. The inspirational tale of Dumbo, the courageous baby elephant who uses his sensational ears to soar to fame with the help of his clever best friend Timothy Q. Mouse, will thrill and delight audiences of all ages. And now, the award-winning music and empowering messages about friendship and belief in yourself reach new heights in this must-have presentation of Walt Disney’s animated classic Dumbo!

About Disney’s “The Rescuers”: Join the shy but brave mouse Bernard and his glamorous partner Miss Bianca — two tiny heroes on a great big mission to save a young girl named Penny, who has sent an urgent call for help. Taking off on the wings of their trusted albatross friend Orville, Bernard and Bianca soar to the marshy swamp of Devil’s Bayou. There, they find themselves on the riverboat hideout of the hilariously evil Madame Medusa, who needs Penny to retrieve the world’s largest diamond. Contains tobacco depictions.

About Disney’s “Bolt”: Get ready for the most paws-itively awesome adventure ever. Bolt is the star of the biggest show in Hollywood. The problem is, he thinks it’s real. After he’s accidentally shipped to New York City and separated from his costar and owner Penny, Bolt springs into action, determined to unleash his mind-blowing “super powers” to defeat evil and find his way back to her. Experience all the high-flying, death-defying stunts of Bolt and his sidekicks as they set off on their incredible journey and action-packed quest—where Bolt discovers you don’t need super powers to be a hero.

About Disney’s “Oliver and Company”: In this animated classic based on Charles Dickens’ timeless Oliver Twist, homeless Oliver, a feisty young cat, is rescued by a pack of dogs and welcomed into their gang. With new friends Dodger, Tito and their pals, Oliver explores New York and learns to survive in his new world. When he’s adopted by a young girl, Oliver tries to balance his old friendships with his new ones. But when his young owner is kidnapped, it’s up to Oliver, Dodger, Tito and the gang to save her. Includes unforgettable songs performed by Billy Joel, Huey Lewis and Bette Midler. Contains tobacco depictions.
