The Muppets Present… Great Moments in American History'

[mikeh]

Are there only going to be two versions of the show?

Yes

 

[Tinkwings]

I LOVE IT!!! Glad they used the windows and Sam Eagle rocks.....

This was so much better than I initially thought it was going to be. I love the muppets, but was so nervous hearing they were going to have a show in Liberty Square. Well done Disney! This was executed very well!

He's making a joke about this being popular and Disney then adding some dining combo where you'd get a meal and a ticket for a FP viewing area of the show.

At least, sort of a joke...because given how nickel and dime Disney is with their $60 one hour magic mornings, etc. - it wouldn't surprise many of us.

^^^THIS^^^ Thank you.

Ehh. It would have been sort of funny if the subject wasn't a streetmosphere show.

Sorry you didn't get my joke.

Does the times guide list the topic of the show? Or do you just go and find out?

It does not. It doesn't even list the times. It just says "intermittently between 9:30 - 4:40"

Honestly, I'd prefer it if they were all different (or at least 3 different versions) or just the same one all the time.

Bingo! Although I will say two is still better than one. Most shows on property don't even have that much variety so its a nice change of pace.

^^^THIS^^^ Thank you.



Sorry you didn't get my joke.

No I got it. I just thought it wasn't that good.

If they ever choose to add another moment in history, Piggy portraying one of the important Revolutionary women is my first choice. I'd rather see that than another story where Kermit says "No Piggy, there's no part for you." There were plenty of Revolutionary women who were just as important as the men- Martha Washington, Abigail Adams, Deborah Sampson, Betsy Ross, Margaret Corbin ("Molly Pitcher") to name a few.

Second choice goes to them performing a slightly edited version of "Yorktown (the World Turned Upside Down)" from Hamilton. Lin Manuel Miranda seems to have some great contracts with Disney, he could make it happen.

I love this so much. It reminds me of what Diagon Alley does (in the best possible way) with their rotating entertainment.

More lands need these 10 minute bite-sized spontaneous showings. Something you don't need to queue up for, just be surprised when you wander by.

I actually never made that connection until now. Maybe they got some inspiration to do this show.

Bingo! Although I will say two is still better than one. Most shows on property don't even have that much variety so its a nice change of pace.

I'd like to see new shows added eventually. Maybe one for Thanksgiving or other American holidays.

Crossing the Delaware river for a Christmas show? Maybe?

 

[GiveMeTheMusic]

They knocked it out of the park. Great work!

 

[kap91]

Wow! Someone stepped up their writing. Love it.

I know that a lot of people blamed this show for the loss of meet and greets around Magic Kingdom. I would rather have shows with this quality than more meet and greets. I am so bummed I missed the opening of this show. I cannot wait to go back to Disney World to see the Muppets. In my opinion, this is high quality Disney entertainment that we use to see.

 

[ToTBellHop]

I will take Live entertainment any day over a dumb meet and greet. No tears shed from me over the loss of a few

Agreed. This was certainly worth that sacrifice and it seems this will be able to entertain a good number of guests.

Just saw the video. It was great! My family and I laughed so hard at the "interrupting America" joke.

Mighty Disney gods, if you're reading this, more shows like this please!

 

[NelsonRD]

I like the show, but does anybody know the technical details of how this show is performed? Puppeteer operations, 6 times a day, can be taxing. Any idea how many puppeteers, or any automation? I ask out of show consistency.

Was the round opening Sam appeared in created specifically for this show? Older pics of the HoP building don't show that.

It seems they cut the hole in the building just for the show, which is a shame.

Considering a major focus of HOP is on Lincoln, I'd like to see their take on him, the Emancipation Proclamation and the Civil War.

I guess I would start small with two shows then work in others as they achieve a comfort level with it.
