Performer - Composer - Voice Actor
A NOTE FROM NOAH: This is wild. When I started writing and posting Disney medleys 2 1/2 years ago, I could not fathom that it would make way for an entire career, and now a live show. I love paying tribute to Disney music, shining a light on the obscure songs we hold close to our hearts, and using that music to connect a community. Thank-you to each and every one of you here today, and to every single person who has enjoyed, sang-along to, or even felt validated by my work. A special thank-you to all my friends and mentors who have supported me in life, online, and in the entertainment industry. Hopefully tonight will bring you joy, bring back memories, and remind us all that music is the closest thing we have to magic.
