Disney's Animal Kingdom 'Mor Thiam' entertainer to end later this month

[COProgressFan]

Um, who said it was the park getting rid of him? There's no possible way he resigned/retired? :shrug:

Either way, even if he did choose to retire on his own, DAK has cut most of its live entertainment acts in the past year. Following this pattern, many of us are doubtful that he will be replaced. That is a concern.

It's ironic to me that a global entertainment company loves to continually cut live entertainment from its parks in Florida....

Thanks. I thought someone earlier in the thread said that wasn't him, hence my confusion.

That is not him as I said earlier in my post. Go back and re read it. I know Kasa. Do a simple google search and you will see a pic of the person who is leaving.

That photo earlier in the thread is him.

That is incorrect.

You're definitely right.

Mor Thiam

Thanks Brian. I'm not sure what was so confusing about me providing the man's full name, saying I know him and showing us together in a video but....
mystery solved!

And once again, here is Kaza playing percussion and a pic of us together at the end.

Both of.those guys have played the same character.

Mor Thiam is a real person, not a character. He only plays himself.

Same with Kasa. A performer, not a character.

To all teachers on the board, respect. Wow.

Both of these guys performed at Muziki drums and both will be jobless?
