News Rogers the Musical coming to the Hyperion Theater

[TrainsOfDisney]

It's a shame Disney doesn't charge people money to get into the place.

I know right… maybe if they charged enough they could even make a profit - then there would be no excuse not to have live shows!

It's a shame Disney doesn't charge people money to get into the place.

If they started charging money to get into the park, they could maybe afford to do a stage show.

Remember the good old days when Disneyland would make a stage show part of their tv marketing to get people to come to the park?

Now they don't have advertise. No need for live entertainment. No need for high quality rides. Just increase ticket prices and charge for every service and people will STILL pack the park. Where is the tipping point?

I suspect sales on this will contribute to the argument of whether to bring the show back or not.

It is a bit strange to release the soundtrack after the show has ended with no announced reopen.

Quite a few of us in park entertainment fandom have been asking for it/talking about it. They also probably wanted to see how the show was received before investing in the recording. And then they had to produce it. But also, I think it's to gauge interest both locally and potentially to remount the show elsewhere and/or seriously consider expanding it to a larger format. And they did hint with the marquee that it's not necessarily ended. *fingers crossed*

Here are links to Rogers: The Musical (Original Cast Recording) on Spotify and Apple Music.

Since Lin Manuel Miranda is on payroll it would be great if they just put a 45 min version of Hamilton in here.

This never gets old. Weird Al is hilarious and an incredibly talented musician (listen to those harmonies!!!). He is a national treasure.

We need Skipper Dan: The Musical! at the Hyperion.

I'm all for that. One based on the original or one by Weird Al.

^ Because nothing says "Disneyland Resort" like f-bombs.

Also, I don't think Disney owns Hamilton the play. They just bought the filmed version of the play for Disney+.

It’s in one of the guardians of the galaxy movies and they use that franchise.

That franchise, not that content, in the parks.

Tony Stark had a stripper pole on his private jet. Don't expect to see that at DCA either.

Soooo Hamilton without the f-bomb could be a thing as well. Haha.

They actually did pull that language from the Disney+ version of the film so it could be streamed there. LMM joked he "gave two f's" to be on Disney+.

They pulled two and kept the third I believe.

Yeah, I think there's a half a word or sort of drawn-out version still in there. But maybe they say the whole thing - I've only watched it a few times on there and don't recall. Either way, one usage is allowed to keep it at a PG-13 rating level.

 

[PiratesMansion]

They're not going to do Hamilton at DCA (though I'd love it if they did), not when LMM has produced two extremely marketable actual Disney films.

But if they did, they'd just...cut the F bombs, which would be extraordinarily easy to do and change nothing about the show in any meaningful way. Shocking, I know.
