“Go to college first, then pursue it. You need something to fall back on and life is long. Everything in due time,” Casas-Silva shared her experience.

While sharing her experiences and excitements about her career with Disney on Ice Casas-Silva gave a little peek of this year’s exciting Disney on Ice program. She said that this year’s program will please both children and adults. Disney on Ice Worlds of Fantasy will feature Cars from Pixar’s Cars, Little Mermaid and her friends from Under the Sea, Tinker Bell and her friends and characters from Toy Story 3 including Barbie and Ken.

“People cannot be late or they will miss the cars,” Sara Casas-Silva said. The cars will be life size and they will drive on ice. Little mermaid follows the cars and Tinker Bell joins the fun afterwards. And to make the show even more memorable Toy Story 3 characters will join at the end and this will be the part that adults will enjoy the most because there will be a lot of adult humor. Disney on Ice Worlds of Fantasy is promising to be a show for the whole family.
