Step into Casa Madrigal for an unprecedented concert spectacular as the original voice cast of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Academy Award®-winning film Encanto reunites at the Hollywood Bowl for a show-stopping concert event featuring fan-favorite musical numbers from the three-time Grammy®-nominated soundtrack. Starring Stephanie Beatriz (Mirabel), Jessica Darrow (Luisa), Diane Guerrero (Isabela), Adassa (Dolores), Carolina Gaitán (Pepa), Mauro Castillo (Félix), Angie Cepeda (Julieta), and Olga Merediz (Abuela Alma), along with special guests Carlos Vives and Andrés Cepeda, Encanto at the Hollywood Bowl turns the historic venue into the world of the animated film that became a global phenomenon. The live-to-film concert experience, featuring an 80-person orchestra, 50 dancers, and out-of-this-world special effects, gives audiences a front row seat to the musical extravaganza celebrating Disney’s Encanto.
Encanto at the Hollywood Bowl is directed by Chris Howe and choreographed by Jamal Sims and Kai Martinez, with production design by Misty Buckley. Sally Wood is Fulwell 73 Productions’ creative showrunner, with Gabe Turner, Emma Conway, and Lou Fox serving as executive producers. The Hollywood Bowl’s visual transformation into the Casita is brought to life by NorthHouse. The concert event is produced by Fulwell 73 Productions, Live Nation-Hewitt Silva, and Disney Concerts, along with AMP Worldwide. Conductor Anthony Parnther leads the full orchestra, performing the film’s score and songs live-to-picture, and the cast and special guests perform live. A Colombian band, featuring musicians from the soundtrack, accompanies the orchestra.
