Students take part in the Disney Performing Arts Program

Submitted by Angela M. Kline, Disney Performing Arts

Members of Rolling Meadows High School Pom Squad became stars of their own Disney show on March 25, when they entertained resort guests at Waterside Stage at Downtown Disney. The group traveled to the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida to take part in the Disney Performing Arts Program.

The performers, under the direction of Kelly Pfeiffer and Allison Meyer, entertained hundreds of Downtown Disney guests with their performance to songs including "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift and "Love Runs Out" by One Republic.

In addition to their performance, the group participated in the Disney Performing Arts "Disney Dancin'" workshop, where the students learned techniques to help maximize their rehearsal time and deliver a focused performance from a professional Disney dancer.

Vocal, instrumental and dance ensembles from all around the world apply to perform each year as a part of Disney Performing Arts at both the Disneyland Resort and the Walt Disney World Resort. Once selected, they are given the opportunity to perform at the resort for an international audience of theme park guests. Millions of performers have graced the stages of the Disney Parks in the more than 25-year history of the program.
