Almost 500 Walt Disney World Cast Members who share a passion for the performing arts are currently in rehearsing for a musical performance to benefit local children with an interest in music. This Disney VoluntEARS concert will benefit a local charity.
The Encore! Cast Performing Arts group, known for staging entertaining concerts for charities, is getting ready to present “The Art of the Possible – The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios Premier Theater. This year, the group has chosen A Gift For Music as their beneficiary. The non-profit organization gives free musical instruments and instruction to disadvantaged students in six Orange County public schools.
The Encore! Cast Performing Arts group was founded in 2002. The group enables Walt Disney World Cast Members and their families to showcase their talents and perform for worthy causes. The group includes volunteer singers, instrumentalists, dancers, actors, flag performers and support staff who donate more than 50,000 hours annually to create, rehearse and produce each Encore show.
Since its creation, Encore has donated all proceeds from ticket sales to local charities, raising more than $200,000 presently. Past recipients have included the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, United Arts of Central Florida, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and the Base Camp Children’s Cancer Foundation, among others.
