    Mulan Synopsis

    show_logo.jpg






    The Fa family Ancestors take us back to ancient china where Mulan`s big day to meet the village Matchmaker has arrived (Written in Stone). Mulan`s father Fa Zhou prays to the family Ancestors (Honor to Us All) to no avail. A nervous Mulan wrecks her betrothal ceremony, dishonoring the family (Honor to Us All - Reprise) and making herself feel terrible (Reflection). Fa Zhou is unexpectedly called to the army by Chi Fu, the Emperor`s councilor, having no son to join for him. Against her feeble father`s command, Mulan steals Fa Zhou`s helmet and sword, dresses as a boy, and runs away from home to go in his place (Written in Stone Ð Reprise). The ancestors have no choice but to send the misfit dragon Mushu to stop Mulan, who will be killed if she is discovered (Honor to Us All - Reprise).

    As Shan-Yu and the Huns prepare to attack China, Mushu helps Mulan act like a soldier (Keep `Em Guessin`). Mulan introduces herself as "Ping" and joins the Guys-Yao, Ling and Qian-Po, to endure Captain Chang`s grueling training (I`ll Make a Man Out of You/Lesson No. 1). The Chinese Soldiers march to defend a mountain village from Shan-Yu (A Girl Worth Fighting For), but arrive too late. While the Soldiers grieve (A Girl Worth Fighting For - Reprise), the Huns attack. Mulan creates noise to trigger an avalanche, which covers the Huns and saves the Soldiers from destruction. Shang honors Ping, only to discover Mulan beneath the helmet. He spares Mulan`s life for saving his, but leaves her behind (Written in Stone/Reflection - Reprise).

    Suddenly, Shan-Yu and the Huns emerge from the avalanche and race toward the Imperial City. Mulan runs ahead to warn Shang (Written in Stone - Reprise). At the Emperor`s Palace, the Chinese people celebrate the defeat of the Huns. While Shang ignores Mulan, Shan-Yu surprises and kidnaps the Emperor. Mulan convinces Shang and the Guys to dress as women to distract Shan-Yu while Mushu signals the army (Keep `Em Guessin` - Reprise). The Guys save the Emperor, Mulan defeats Shan-Yu, and the Huns retreat. The Emperor honors Mulan`s bravery, to everyone`s surprise and delight (A Girl Worth Fighting For - Reprise). Back at home, Fa Zhou welcomes his beloved-and honorable-daughter. Shang surprises Mulan with a visit as a suitor instead of a captain. The Ancestors invite Mushu into the Fa family Temple as a full-fledged Guardian (Honor to Us All - Finale, Keep `Em Guessin` - Bows).
