This tour was excellent! Colin did a fantastic job. He was very engaged and entertaining throughout. Being able to go behind the scenes and try on the costumes at the New Amsterdam theater was so much fun. Great experience!

This tour was AWESOME!!!! We loved it SO MUCH! The best part was all the things we did at the New Amsterdam - that would be my only complaint, I wish we would have had a bit more time to play with the props and costumes there!!! Colin was AMAZING!!! Funny, knowledgeable, talked to everyone individually on the tour, he was just so personable, we loved him!!!! I recommend this tour to all my friends and I would do it again!!!

FAQs

Which props do we get to see/try on in the New Amsterdam theatre?

Props may vary but they all come from the Broadway Disney Archive of Props, which means that they have all been used in actual Disney Theatrical productions. You might find props from The Lion King, Mary Poppins, The Little Mermaid and Aida. On tours you usually hear “don’t touch!”; but not on this tour. You will be allowed to touch, try, and photograph everything. This is your chance to bring all of your Broadway fantasies to life!

Can I buy tickets to a show through you?

No. Unfortunately, we are not certified ticket vendors.

Does this tour run in bad weather?

Yes. Our tours run rain, shine, sleet, or snow, so please dress accordingly.
