Return to Question of the Week Highlights

What's your favorite theme park show at Disney World (past or present)? By a theme park show we mean one that is included in the price of admission and in one of the four Disney World theme parks (like the Tarzan Show at AK, Beauty and the Beast at the Studios, etc)

Answers posted to the list:

There are many. I loved the entertainers that used to be in United Kingdom (they could still be there, I just haven't seen them in a while), the Voice of America, and just watching the show that is people having a good time.

Favorite show of all time was Hunchback of Notre Dame. Always felt like it by itself was worth the price of admission (particularly when we were there in time for the entire pre-show). Favorite show now is The Festival of the Lion King.

We like all the shows, but the special one for us is Beauty and the Beast at MGM Studios. One reason is that we first saw it on our honeymoon -- just magical! We have to see it every trip now. And I love 4 for a Dollar, the a capella group who sometimes sings before the show, though we haven't seen them for a while. Does anyone know if 4 for a Dollar is still around?

I have a few favorites: The old Hunchback of Notre Dame show at the Studios. I loved how you could sit so close to the stage - I really got an appreciation of the intricate costume changes and props for this show by sitting closeup. Also I got picked for the pre-show once (helping the juggler) which was fun. The Tarzan Rocks show at Animal Kingdom - I like the energy of this show Indiana Jones at the Studios - when that big ball comes rolling down at the beginning it always gets my attention Candlelight Processional - very well done (I recommend the dinner package!) Of these I'd say my all time favorite is the Hunchback show.

Unfortunately I haven't seen many of them. I love shows and always say *this time* I'm going to see more, but somehow it doesn't usually work out, probably because the rest of the family isn't up for it. I think of the ones I have seen, the Lion King show at AK would have to be my favorite. I think it's better than Cirque du Soleil!

My DH and I would both say Festival of the Lion King - I've seen it 3 times and still absolutely love it, and DH has only seen it once and was so overwhelmed he is quite sure he only saw about 1/4 of what was going on. (Ok, OK - I have to admit it - I just LOVE those monkeys!)

Had to be the Hunchback of Notre Dame stage show at the Studios. The staging was so creative and the performers were superb. Current shows--probably Tarzan Rocks at Animal Kingdom. I like that it's not just a retelling of the movie plot, and my whole family likes the skating monkeys.

Definitely Fantasmic, but the now defunct Hunchback of Notre Dame was our favorite before. Lion King is a close second now. Also, I used to love the previous preshow of the Honey I Shrunk the Audience...the "True Colors" preshow. I loved the little bits of wisdom interjected into the photos...especially the ones dealing with imagination....I did not care that it was a giant Kodak commercial, I loved it and wish they did not change it....

Hands down, Candlelight processional. for a show that's offered all year, Festival of the Lion King .. Excellent!

Peggy Sue

My favorite is Candlelight Processional. But of the shows you can see year-round, my favorite is American Adventure. I do love Fantasmic though!

Beauty & The Beast gets me every time! It's a definite *mustsee* and always leaves me a with a full heart and a tear in my eye. Absolutely gorgeous!

Maggie

This is a hard question to answer because they are all so good so I will list my favorites, not necessarily in any order: Magic Kingdom Legend of the Lion King Epcot The American Adventure MGM The Pocahontas Stage Show Animal Kingdom Festival of the Lion King Tarzan Rocks

Dennis

For an animatronic show it's definately The American Adventure. My favorite live show is Lion King at MGM.

-----

With out a doubt, our favorite show is Fantasmic at MGM. The technology, the music, the MAGIC cannot be topped.
