Can anyone confirm if the new Nemo muscial replaces the Lion King show, i took a seat and watched the Lion King show in 2002 and missed it in 2005 when we touch down in June 2007 i was hoping to watch it again but have a sneaky feeling that it has been replaced.... if so i am sure it will be as good and will take a look... has anyone seen it and how did it rate..

Nemo the Musical replaced Tarzan Rocks. The Lion King is still running.

:sohappy:
gotta agree. I like Epcot's Nemo ride a lot better. Espcially when there is a better musical show (FOLK) in the same park. Why bother having another?

I'm obsessed with the Nemo musical! I've seen it 5 times since it opened (the first time was only it's third day of previews). Though I'm a huge fan of musicals and Broadway, so it feeds my addiction while I'm at Disney.
Get there at least 45mins-1hr early to even secure a seat. Even with the addition of more show times, it's been getting busier and more crowded. I've gotten there even 30-40 mins early and still been turned away.
On a side note, I despise the Festival of the Lion King. If I wanted to see parade floats I would stand along the street at 3:45. The actors and performers are really talented, but the whole thing is overly unimaginative...

They're both still there. I much prefer Festival of the Lion King, which is still, imo, the best "live" show anywhere on property.

I agree it is the best if you don't count Fantasmic

I personally like both about equally. I think the music, sets and puppets are outstanding at Nemo, whereas I enjoy the variety and sheer energy of FOLK. They're definately number 1 and 2 on my list of the best live shows at WDW, with a slight edge to Nemo.

I tend to look at this show in a different way. To me, the parade floats are simply there to add to the environment in which the amazingly talented human performances take place. To be honest, it's almost as if they are simply a part of the staging.
This show is a must see for my family every time we are at AK. Of course, having my kids picked to take part in the show a few years ago has made it even more special.

I didn't count Fantasmic, only because none of the vocals or anything else are live. In Nemo and FOLK, all of the singing is done live. But, if you count Fantasmic, then yes, that would be my favorite, with FOLK a close second.
