The Opry House is a 1929 American animated short film directed by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. It is the fifth film in the Mickey Mouse film series. It was the fifth Mickey Mouse short to be released, the second of that year. It cast Mickey as the owner of a small theater (or opera house according to the title). Mickey performs a vaudeville show all by himself. Acts include his impersonation of a snake charmer, his performing a belly dance, his caricature of a Hasidic Jew and, for the finale, a piano performance of Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 by Franz Liszt. It was released on March 20, 1929 by Celebrity Productions. Columbia Pictures reissued the film after Walt Disney Productions switched distributors.
