Disney Princess

What does it take to become a Disney Princess at Disney World in Florida?

I’ve always wanted to be a Princess at Disney World in Florida. Are there guidelines that I have to follow or something? I’ve taken acting classes all throughout high school, and I am willing to take them in college if it means that I can work at Disney World.

You will want to attend an official audition. Keep an eye on the audition page for updates. This site is great for any information you want to know about Disney auditions from what to expect, what to bring, what the experience is like, and more.

Disney Princesses are cast into a few different groups. Those who can sing/dance/act and have the ability to portray at least a few characters could be cast as a performing princess. These princesses could be cast for in park performances like parades, stage shows, the beauty and the beast show, and other such things.

Meet and Greet princesses pose for pictures and sign autographs. They don’t necessarily have to be performers. Disney Princesses range in height of 5’4 to 5’7. You don’t have to have the hair color of any particular princess to get cast as her, because every cast member will have a wig. The humidity in Florida is so high, so everyone wears wigs no matter what.

You will also be taught how to do your own makeup, and will do it before every shift by using guidelines. Most cast members are not cast as one particular character, but are cast based on their versatility. They like to be able to tell someone that she is Belle one day and Snow White the next without a problem.

If you think you can do these things, attend an audition and see what happens! They will quickly glance over people and choose those whose faces they think are versatile enough to continue. Auditions can be brutal, from what I have heard. Best of luck to you!
