[DCBaker]

In a new casting call, Disney Live Entertainment is seeking online submissions from variety acts of up to five performers local to Central Florida to perform as atmosphere entertainment at Epcot.

The acts they are looking for include Magicians, Jugglers, Physical Comedians, Performance Artists, Visual Acts, Solo/Duo Dance Team, Acts Using Technology, and unique multi-disciplinary acts.

Here's a look at the notice:

Shame about it specifying no musical acts, because Off Kilter is top on my wishlist.

No reason why MK can't do this as well!

Hey WDW management, how about you bring back Citizens of Hollywood at DHS? It sure as hell has more capacity issues than Epcot! Guarantee it would be 10 times more popular than any new act at Epcot.

Typically, these are budgeted into individual parks financials, not the overall company of WDW. EPCOT receiving entertainment should have no baring on Hollywood Studios receiving (or not receiving) more entertainment.

Very sadly, the disbanded.

If they hire me, I'll sit out front of the Canada pavilion and drink beer and eat Coffee Crisp chocolate bars and ketchup chips. Give everyone a nice slice of Canadian culture.

We were just talking about this yesterday- the streetmosphere that added lots to our vacations

We always stopped at every show while strolling around Epcot, and HS.

Meets and greets are for a whole different crowd- (we don’t partake) BUT someone juggling, climbing chairs, acrobatting, etc- it only adds!

Bring it on

I understand that sadly, Off-Kilter no longer exists.

Epcot World Showcase Players were always a hoot.

If superpowers applied in real life, this would be a good use of the Blues Brothers “We are getting the band back together.” superpower.

I was at Epcot for OKs last night. I haven't seen so much love for a Disney attraction since they closed the AC.

I was there, too! I walked up to one of the muckety-mucks that was watching and said, “Take a look around. You’ll never see a crowd like this again. Big mistake getting rid of Off Kilter!” He just kind of stared through me.

Coincidently, we happened to be at what ended up being their last public concert before they disbanded.

I’d rather Disney produce this kind of stuff in house. When they go to outside acts, even though very talented, you can tell it’s lacking a bit of polish and quality

Mo Rockin with the talented belly dancer brought smiles to many faces!
