2017 Epcot Holiday Storyteller Changes

Has any one been to this year's Epcot International Festival of the Holidays?

I've seen conflicting information and wanted to know if it is true that the Hanukkah and Kwanzaa storytellers are no longer there. I've also heard that Helga is no longer appearing in Germany.

It appears that there are new musical acts for Hanukkah and Germany to replace the storytellers.

Thanks in advance for shedding any light on this situation.

We missed Helga too. Drinking Gluhwein without Helga talking about Grandma in the kitchen just wasn't the same. I don't think the musical act in Germany has anything to do with No Helga as they had a musical stage act there last year and Helga was also there..
Interestingly in watching "Decorating Disney" one of the quick scenes had Helga showing the Advent Calendar to a little girl with Nutcracker in the background (at 43 minutes).
