  • Disney’s Wonderful World of Color was a staple Sunday night television program on NBC from 1960 to 1969. I got to hand it to the Argyle Theatre for providing the same carousel of color, but this time it was live on their stage. Disney’s Descendants: The Musical is just one more of their vivid productions. Disney’s Descendants Descends on Babylon’s Argyle Theater
