Coming Attraction: Disney on Ice presents Worlds of Fantasy

'Tis the season for ice skating -- yes, even in Southern California -- and Disney on Ice presents Worlds of Fantasy will be whirling and twirling downtown at Staples Center in December.

The show will feature characters from such animated films as Disney/Pixar's "Cars," Disney's "Tinker Bell," "The Lion King" and "The Little Mermaid." Can't wait to see Pumbaa rock out on ice skates.

Not only that, but a Disney Princess Pre-show will greet families who arrive early. Kids and parents can take a look at various ball gowns and mementos from the Disney princess stories, and they'll even be able to mingle with a Disney Princess, as well. (No word on which one just yet.)

Disney on Ice presents Worlds of Fantasy will be at Staples Center Dec. 17-20 before heading to Orange County, the Inland Empire and Long Beach.

L.A. Story readers can receive a four-pack of tickets for $44 (Mon.-Fri. matinees) or $4 off single weekend tickets by entering the coupon code MOM on www.ticketmaster.com.
