I don’t know spit about all these fancy newfangled 3-D Pixar movies that Disney makes nowadays. When I was growing up, we communicated using land-line telephones, and we watched
The Lion King and
Aladdin on VHS tapes, and we sure as the dickens didn’t have access to Internet videos explaining the hidden sexual images contained within them. This special Kauffman Center performance is a special treat to us children of the 1990s who effortlessly memorized the songs from those Disney cartoons
The Little Mermaid,
Beauty and the Beast and more. The Kansas City Symphony will be presenting the movie studio’s biggest hits, accompanied by singers and video projections.
