The Muppets Present… Great Moments in American History'

Yep...sounds like corporate speak for cancelled to me.

"There was a sinkhole under Horizons."

We are temporarily closing 20K for a refurbishment.

Very fishy indeed, but he said it threw off their scheduling in some way and this will help them reset the show and get it up and running, I don't buy it, but that's the story they gave me. I'm going to keep calling tomorrow.

Okay. I choose to focus on "reset the show and get it up and running."

I hope you are correct.

We have no comment on the Tower of Terror rumors *mic drop*

Hopefully it does not close. It was a really fun show. Lots of smiles in the crowd today when we caught the Paul Revere version. I thought it was pretty well done, and it's quick.

Souvenir profits directly related to the show.

But this show doesn't sell merchandise! No kidding it no profit would come in. What would they expect?

But they put all that Muppet stuff in the Liberty Square Christmas shop.

But they put all that Muppet stuff in the Liberty Square Christmas shop.

This is the first I'm hearing that they actually put Muppet merchandise there. I wonder how much they publicize this.

Considering there's a casting call for it tomorrow, I'd say the show is safe.

We only saw th Paul Revere version today. Does the Declaration of Independence show have a person out on the street? Trying to avoid spoilers by watching the videos. But I thought that was talked about in early casting calls

Yes, it does.

Starts to add up pretty fast if all you see is $$$. Which it would seem is the case for Disney currently.

But honestly... Disney just paid a lot of money redoing the facade of hall of presidents, installing speakers, rehearsals, paying to have the show written, paying to have the costumes made, would they really pay for all that and cut the whole thing?

Except that they pulled a bunch of M&Gs the day that the Muppets started. So the cost would be pretty neutral at this point. Entertainment is usually fairly obvious to see where adds are offset, in this case Woody and Jessie (among others) took the hit.

I'm just wondering if they are testing waters for more than just those two shows.They could have one with Miss Piggy as Betsy Ross or one with Fozzie & Gonzo rather being the sidekicks..

 

[CanadianGordon]

I'm glad to hear they're casting.

 

[Cmdr_Crimson]

Casting for Jefferson James is Back up....https://disneyauditions.com/audition-calendar/?aud_id=8066

Thanks...I was trying to figure it out myself.
