Free ★

Join real-life sisters Amanda and Amber Miller as they sing, dance, and jazz square their way through the DISNEY VORTEX! In this autobiographical musical revue, Amanda and Amber are Black fangirls grappling with their formative idolization of (predominantly white) Disney Channel stars. Through a combo of musical numbers, drag, and sketch, they must ultimately level up to self-actualize, finally breaking out of the intoxicating realm known as... the Disney Vortex.
