Arnaud Feredj and Matthieu Robin, show directors at Disneyland Paris, have brought their daring artistic vision to this project to create a fully immersive, surprising and heartfelt show. “TOGETHER: a Pixar Musical Adventure has been imagined as a multi-layered sensory experience, stimulating guests’ senses through live music, visual technologies, water effects, scents and more, blurring the line between fantasy and reality”. From full-sized mobile decorations that stand at 6.2 meters high and 30 meters wide, to 453sqm LED screens stretching from floor to ceiling, this 650sqm stage is the most immersive one ever created at Disneyland Paris.
The show is filled with poetry and creativity, whether through the state-of-the-art lighting design with 200 spotlights magnifying movement and music – leading to the seamless blending of surface and performers on stage – or the aerial view of the dancers that transforms them into a giant kaleidoscope.
This new daily show is a true testament to the talent of Disneyland Paris’ artistic, Production and technical teams of Cast Members – costume designers, puppeteers, dancers, musicians, prop decorators, lighting and special effects designers, engineers and many more. They have also worked alongside Pixar Animation Studios and renowned external talents such as Romain Rachline-Borgeaud, France’s Got Talent finalist, tap dancer and founder of the RB Dance Company, Céline & Cain Kitsaïs, multidisciplinary choreographers and founders of “Le Labo” dancing concept, and Anne Gravoin, trained violinist and Executive Producer of AG Productions in charge of selecting the musicians for the ensemble.
These successful collaborations of creative in-house and external talents have resulted in a powerful show with a French touch. Best-in-class suppliers, such as Plastic Studio, Bas et Haut and Freckled Sky have also been identified in France and Europe to bring the show to life.
Music plays a major role in the show. During every performance, live musicians will pay homage to the timeless beauty of Pixar’s most memorable soundtracks while also performing an original score. The mix of a live musical ensemble and a soundtrack recorded with 54 musicians at the Nashville Studios will truly bring guests on an emotional journey.
Charlie, a child who is passionate about music, dreams of conducting the orchestra for their school’s end-of-year gala. But something unexpected happens and Charlie loses the precious sheet music on the eve of the concert! As the child falls asleep, Woody and their Toy Story friends join forces to recover the scores scattered throughout various Pixar stories.
From the beloved Toy Story crew to Coco’s vibrant decor, the world of Up, Monsters, Inc. or Finding Nemo’s underwater reef, guests will be invited to embark on an immersive and multisensory poetic journey.
With more than 30 artists and Pixar characters on stage, this artistic and aesthetic live performance will take guests on an epic adventure through the worlds of Pixar, accompanied by a live orchestra.
The show and its specific production process are the perfect illustration of in-house and external talents working creatively together. In total, the creation of “TOGETHER: a Pixar Musical Adventure” has brought together more than 100 cast members.

More than 40 best-in-class suppliers from France and around the world contributed their expertise and creativity to help bring the show to life, together with the Disneyland Paris team. From costumes to stage décor and more, these companies brought their savoir faire to this exceptional entertainment experience.
Disneyland Paris Creative Costuming talent worked alongside Bas et Hauts, a French costume workshop based in the heart of Paris on rue Saint-Honoré, to produce more than 120 dazzling costumes for the show performers.
This unique collaboration goes back to almost thirty years ago. Its success is rooted in the traditional skills brought by Bas et Hauts and the rich collaboration between the different teams, building a trusted relationship over the years with about 52 000 pieces of costumes produced for many shows and parades since 1996.
Disneyland Paris show team also called on the expertise of the company Freckled Sky for the very first time to develop artistic mixed-reality video immersing guests in Charlie’s room.
Decorative props and set design also play an important role in bringing the show to life. Once again, Disneyland Paris worked with Plastic Studio to contribute to the project, notably for the décor in the Finding Nemo scene created by Disneyland Paris set designer Yves Ollier. This local workshop has been a trusted partner for the resort’s Entertainment teams over the years and continues that strong legacy today.
Music is a universal language and, as an art form, it has the power to bring people from all generations together. This is what makes the show so special – a music-driven script designed to keep the audience engaged throughout the entire production.
On stage, music is at the heart of the story, as Charlie’s friends do everything in their power
to help find the lost music sheets and fulfill the child’s dream of taking part in the school concert.
Music is also present in the theater space, with a live orchestra composed of eight musicians. Piano, violin, trumpet, cello, guitar, drums and saxophone are all highlighted as an integral part of the story and accompany the spectator throughout each scene. Each of these instruments serves the plot in a very specific way and blends harmoniously with the soundtrack, recorded with 54 artists at the Nashville Studios.
“Together We Are One” is an original creation developed for the show TOGETHER: A Pixar Musical Adventure and exclusive to Disneyland Paris. The music was produced by Guillaume Coignard and Jonathan Barr, then recorded in Nashville.
