The 40-minute show will be hosted by the infamous Magic Mirror and features an original song called “Magic Mirror on the Wall.”

In a unique twist, the show allows for guests to participate in a dramatic finale where they can influence the show’s outcome.

Unfairly Ever After isn’t the only show debuting on May 27. The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure replaces the previously closed “Voyage of the Little Mermaid.” The reimagined show will feature digital puppetry and new-to-the-show songs.
