Disney on Broadway's biggest hits will be featured during a special concert at this year's D23 Expo.

Tony Award-nominee Gavin Lee will host "Disney on Broadway: A 25th Anniversary Celebration" on August 24 at 3:30 p.m. Joining Lee in Hall D23 for the 75-minute concert will be several Broadway performers, including Heidi Blickenstaff (The Little Mermaid), Ashley Brown (Mary Poppins), Kissy Simmons (The Lion King), Josh Strickland (Tarzan) and Alton Fitzgerald White (The Lion King).

The cast—accompanied by a six-piece band—will perform songs from Disney's Broadway shows such as Beauty and the Beast, Aida, Tarzan, Newsies, Aladdin and Frozen.

There will be a Disney on Broadway virtual reality experience available on the D23 Expo floor. The new experience will put fans in the middle of production numbers from Aladdin, Frozen and The Lion King.

In addition to the concert, the expo will feature presentations from Walt Disney Studios and Disney Parks.  

The D23 Expo takes place at August 23-25 at the Anaheim Convention Center.
