It is present-day, and in the kingdom of Auradon, all of Disney’s beloved heroes and royalty are living happily ever after, safe from the terrifying villains and troublesome sidekicks they have banished to the magic-free Isle of the Lost. That is until Ben, the benevolent teenage son of Belle and King Adam (The Beast), offers a chance of redemption for the troublemaking offspring of the evilest villains. Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos – the children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Cruella De Vil, and Jafar – are welcomed to Auradon Prep to attend school with the children of their parents’ sworn enemies. Now entering a completely foreign world and way of life, the four Villain Kids have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents’ wicked footsteps or learn to be good?

The Music Man is considered an American Classic. It follows Harold Hill, a rather smooth-talking con artist who has been traveling from town to town in the early summer of 1912. Harold has been posing as “Professor” Harold Hill, a boys’ band organizer who promises to teach the boys of small Midwestern towns how to play in a band. Harold, who himself has never played an instrument, plans to collect money for ‘instruments and uniforms’ before skipping town. However, when he meets the beautiful and intelligent librarian, Marian, his plans may start to unravel.
