It’s true, OFC Creations is taking the show on the road to Disney World as part of ROC Summer Theatre Experience 2027!

Eligibility:

  • Open to OFC students ages 14 to graduating senior only (current CCC members must travel with the CCC group and not this offering)
  • To prepare for the trip, students must take part in the Disney Show Choir Bootcamp in June, students will prepare a 20-minute Disney Medley to be performed on the trip
  • Students must also participate in at least one OFC summer camp in July or August 2027
  • Students must audition and be accepted into the program to participate (see info on auditions below)

Timeline:

  • Auditions on Sunday, February 7, 2027 from 9:30AM-12:30PM (see info on auditions below)
  • Disney Show Choir Bootcamp will rehearse Tuesday, June 15th 5PM-9PM; Saturday, June 19th 9AM-12PM; Sunday, June 20th 9am-12PM; and Monday through Friday (6/21-6/25) from 4PM-6PM.
  • Anticipated departure on Monday, June 28 with return on Friday, July 2 or Saturday, July 3. Specific dates/flight times will be determined in early 2027 once auditions have concluded.
  • Five nights at Disney World with four days in the parks

Education:

  • Before the trip, students will spend 8 intensive rehearsals mounting a 20-minute Disney Medley working with OFC staff members. Through song and dance, students will perform at a level of Disney professional caliber
  • Before the trip, students will get to speak with former Disney cast members on their experience and what to look for while in Disney
  • On the trip, students will participate as part of the Disney Imagination Campus Masterclass. Get an inside look at the fundamentals of musical theatre with industry Disney professionals who will lead students through fast-paced rehearsals of a scene from one of Disney’s world-famous shows. Throughout this workshop, participants will also gain valuable insights into audition techniques, the importance of every role, and overcoming unexpected obstacles during performances.
  • On the trip, students will perform their 20-minute Disney Medley on stage for the public at Disney Springs. This performance will be one to remember!
  • On the trip there will be countless other performing arts educational experiences that students will have the option of participating in. Full details on these will be shared with students prior to the bootcamp.
  • When not participating in workshops or performances, students will be able to ride attractions, experience live shows, and of course enjoy the fireworks and nighttime spectaculars! There will be no park hopping on this trip, participants will be at one park per day.

Who Is Involved:

  • This is OFC’s third trip to Disney, but the leaders behind the scenes (Eric Johnson, Hunter Vaughn, and Teressa Bala) are Disney World experts and frequent travelers. This trip will include bringing OFC’s Curtain Call Company (middle school age) on the trip. They will be participating in their own performance and masterclass, but the groups will combine for certain activities like the nighttime spectaculars.
  • 25 to 40 students will be accepted into the program and will work with Hunter Vaughn and Noah Alexander Price in the Disney Show Choir Bootcamp.
  • While on the trip, students will be separated into groups of 4 for rooming and exploring the parks. Students will be permitted to request who they want in their groups; we will strive to accommodate all requests.
  • For this trip we will not be accepting chaperone requests. While chaperones will not be physically with their students the entire time in the park, predetermined check in times will be scheduled for student groups to meet up with their chaperone. Disney World Employees also have direct access to OFC chaperones while students are in the parks, so any student that approaches a Disney cast member with an issue will reach the OFC chaperone.
  • For budget and planning purposes, parents/families of students cannot travel as part of our program. However, if families are interested in coming, we encourage them to book similar flights/hotel and can meet up with their student in the parks, at our performance in Disney Springs, and for dinners.
