Their Magic: Stories from Disney Cast Members

Visiting a Disney park is all about experiencing that Disney "magic." But all the attractions, shows, fireworks, shops, restaurants would be nothing without the cast members who make everything run. They are the magic makers in the Disney parks and resorts. This show will feature a different cast member each episode, letting them tell their story of how they came to work for Disney, what their roles were like, and some of their favorite memories. Disney is all about story telling, so here is a chance for you to hear from some of those everyday cast members about how they bring the magic to someone's visit.
