The Magic of Encanto
Disney Animation Studios
The newest Disney animated feature is ready to put a spell on you! Encanto hits theaters on November 24. It’s set in a fantastical version of Colombia, a country in South America, and follows the magical Madrigal family. Each member of the family has a special gift, such as super strength, shapeshifting, or control over plants. That is, except for Mirabel, the only ordinary Madrigal. But when her family’s magic is under attack, Mirabel might be the only hope they have of saving it!
Encanto features music by Lin Manuel Miranda. Miranda has been nominated for 5 Emmy, 5 Grammy, 1 Oscar, and 5 Tony awards. What’s the ratio of Miranda’s Emmy and Grammy nominations to Tony nominations in simplest form? Record your work and answer on our Numbers in the News answer sheet.
