Fire at Epcot

I hope there's no injuries or significant damage.

I wonder if a stray spark from Harm might have blown the wrong way :/

That's the supposed word on the scene. No confirmation though. I'm not there, but the quote is 'firework hit the stage of the concert area and spread the fire according to person on scene.'

“One little spark of …”.
Seriously though, hope no one is injured and that the damage is easily repairable.

Judging from the comments that regularly appear about EPCOT, I'm sure some were hoping the whole place would burn down ....

(yes...it's sarcasm...)

Fingers crossed that for guest safety Disneyco will now remove that show... and thus remove the stargate and hulking taco barges.

No. Show stays and they just remove the fireworks costing them less money and making the show even worse

Saw a cast member report everything is fine and there’s no damage but I see things dripping from that fire so obviously something got damaged even if it’s slightly. Is that the American pavilion or the back of the stage?

They're saying it's America Gardens Theater, the stage close to World Showcase Lagoon.

Glad this was nothing. I was dreading that they would soon announce “The American Adventure: Under New Management”.

I mean...

They could have used the geyser from Imagination to put out the fire.

 

[monothingie]

An actual fire to distract from the dumpster fire in the lagoon?

FOREMAN TO THE CREW: "Everybody stop work on Moana so we can fix this fire damage, TWDC said we could take our time on Moana anyway".

I guess strobe lights take a little longer to install.

I heard it was this guy and he's pretty upset over this whole G+ thing.....

I wondered what was going on. We were coming back to BC via gondolas from DHS and there were a ton of emergency vehicles there. There was definitely no visible smoke at that point; this was 10 pm.

I've never noticed the stairs on the back of the theatre? What are they used for?
