The wonderful Nic Rouleau, Broadway's record-setting Elder Price in The Book of Mormon, joins David on this episode to share his love of the magical world of Disney. Nic is a true Disney fan--he shares that it was the music from the Disney movies that truly was his gateway into loving the brand--and discusses how watching "The Little Mermaid," "Hercules," and, his favorite "A Goofy Movie" as a kid cemented his love for the Mouse. As a California native, Nic visited Disneyland in his youth, but when he was around 10 years old he visited Walt Disney World for the first time and it was a game-changer. He and David discuss the coincidence of playing a role on Broadway that is equally obsessed with the Orlando Park, and why the Parks are such a magical place to visit. Nic shares his experience of playing Woody from "Toy Story" on The Disney Cruise Line, a character he loved, and continues to love--and how he was introduced to Pin Trading while at sea--while also being "friends" with Prince Phillip. Listen as Nic discusses a perfect day at Walt Disney World, as well as his love for Chip & Dale, Marie from "The Aristocats," Space Mountain, "Pete's Dragon," and Expedition Everest. After Nic reveals a traumatic experience he had once at the Disneyland Resort, he and David play "Two by Two: Disney Edition," a game where David gives a clue referring to a famous pair of Disney characters, and Nic has to identify them. What does Nic refuse to eat at a Disney Theme Park? Listen to this episode of "E-Ticket to Broadway" to find out!
