candidates: Many Disney characters are found throughout the park, greeting visitors and posing for photos. Some have specific areas where they are scheduled to appear, but can be found wandering as well. "World of Color" is a nighttime show, designed by Walt Disney Creative Entertainment. It has more than 1200 fountains and includes lasers, lights, and fire with high-definition projections on mist screens similar to the ones used in "Fantasmic!" at Disneyland and Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. Mad T Party is an interactive nighttime dance party inspired by Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" film and is located in the Hollywood Land district. It is considered a similar experience to Glow Fest, which was staged in the same area in summer 2010, and ElecTRONica, a similar event themed to Disney's "Tron" franchise that ended on April 15, 2012. Mad T Party features lights, music, projections, and merchandise kiosk stands, a lounge and an interactive game area. The event started on June 15, 2012. Pixar Play Parade is a parade featuring floats and characters based on the Disney·Pixar films "Monsters Inc.", "The Incredibles", "Finding Nemo", "A Bug's Life", "Toy Story" and "Cars". The parade originally had an additional section featuring characters from "Ratatouille" but was removed. The floats feature small water jets that shoot water into the crowd of spectators. The music used in the parade is derived from Hong Kong Disneyland's Mickey's WaterWorks Parade, sharing the same tunes. Due to the massive construction in the park, the parade was on hiatus since January 2011 and returned in June 2012. The Red Car News Boys musical group is found at Carthay Circle. They appear via Red Car Trolley and inform guests about local news happenings in-song. A Hollywood newcomer, Mickey Mouse, arrives and is motivated by the newsgroup to pursue his dream of seeking a career in Los Angeles. The performance is partly inspired by the 1992 film, "Newsies". The Five & Dime swing band consists of five male musicians and one female singer. They perform in the cross-hairs of Buena Vista Street and Hollywood Land.
