LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- If you're looking for Mickey Mouse at the Magic Kingdom, just think abracadabra.
Starting Friday, Mickey will greet guests at the Town Square Theater, just inside the theme park's entrance.
Disney redid the interior of the building so that guests feel like they're in a turn-of-the-20th-century theater that features a magic show starring none other than the big cheese himself.
Mickey then greets his guest in a "rehearsal room," complete with stage props and trunks.
There's a little more magic in store for visitors too: no standby lines. The Mickey meet-and-greet will be the first Disney character experience that uses FASTPASS, which lets park goers get a specific return time to meet Mickey, instead of waiting in a line.
The same building will also house a princess meet-and-greet for a short time, while Disney works on a major addition to Fantasyland.
