The Best- and Worst- Disney Park Shows I've Seen | Sir Willow's Park Tales
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лют 2021
- The Disney parks are famous for their entertainment and shows, and there are a lot of great ones. And a few that are not so great. These are 7 of the best, and 5 of the worst, shows at the Disney parks that I've seen.
A behind the scenes look at what a former worker at Disney World, Silver Dollar City, and Busch Gardens Florida experienced in his time working at the parks. From driving large safari trucks around live wild animals while cracking one silly joke after another, to spending 5 years as a #PhotoPass photographer at #WaltDisneyWorld and seeing and experiencing all sorts of things, to being a conductor and #trainrobber on the famous Frisco Silver Dollar Line at #SilverDollarCity. With 10 years of working in the parks, there's lots of stories to tell. Here is some of them...
Not only did I work in theme parks for 10 years, I've visited a whole lot of them as well. Here's some stories of great visits, not so great visits, favorites, reviews, and much more.

You and I would put on such a show that our respective families would die of embarrassment and cringe! LOL
wait a minute, this isn't a hula dancing tutorial I requested
I agree with you with the #1 Favorite Show “Fantastic” That’s also my FAVORITE SHOW
I love Fantasmic. I love the music. I love the whole spectacle of it all. It needs to be updated, but I agree it is the best.
Wow! Favorites!
Thanks for another great video!
For me the (vol) voices of liberty are on my must see list at Epcot’s American adventure
Great video 🙂👍❤
My heart hurts since I missed Phantasmic in my visit. So much to do in HS that it just slipped my mind the whole day.
But youre other list is preatty much spot on even thou I can argue about The Festival Of The Lion King being my favorite.
So favs and no favs favs plus some reasons:
Favs:
1: The Festival Of The Lion King. (It reminded me off how Cats originally was when we sat in 360 setting and those costumes is simply wow!)
2: Finding Nemo The Musical. (Those puppeteers make wonders and make me want to see Avenue Q even more)
3: Frozen Sing A Long Show. (Those storytellers where hilarious and I loved everything but I wish Anna and Elsa would have been there more, then it would be top.)
4: Enchanted tales with Snow White. (Was a great little show and I would love it more if I was not so jet laged that day. A great way to meet a princess if youre not doing dinner shows.)
No favs:
1: Beauty and the Beast: (Wonderful actors but those costumes are so, so, so dated. Put the large theatre to a better use - Maybe a longer show?)
2: Indiana Jones A stunt specular. (It was a fun nostalgia trip to see it again but its not what the park is anymore - As in B and B its time to put the space to better use.)
As I said there is probebly a couple of more I could have seen and loved if I got the time and was not so lagged and there is a couple of the rides that maybe goes as show - Like the Little Mermaid ride at MK. Johan.
Fantasmic is incredible! I was blown away the first time I saw the special effects. It is a must see for anyone who has not seen it and a must see again for anyone who has
cant blame you for your last dislike anytime a animal show takes the focus off of the animals well then its just a regular show
Wow! Sir Willow has a favorite something!
hehe, I've never been shy about my feelings about Fantasmic. :-)
"Favorites"? I'm going to quote Tom's first message at NH and ask: Who are you?
Thanks for the shout out / warning about singing. ;)
I'd say Fantasmic, Nemo, and Aladdin are my 3 favorites in that order.
I agree that Jones and Mermaid were great in their time but struggle for fit and tech now.
Finally, clap on - clap off...
If your ever out in Southern California during the summer time and you want to see a REALLY cool show go to the festival of arts in Laguna Beach they have a show called The Pageant of the Masters it's an excellent show where volunteers get dressed up and hold still for about 90 seconds and create really cool historical paintings and it's AMAZING it also has excellent music I think you'd LOVE it George
i saw the bird show before they added the up show to it and i loved it. i recorded some of it and i think some is on my channel and i loved the lion king show i saw there too.
My sister and I absolutely love the frozen sing a long show ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤪
The bird show is nice also. Love the finding Nemo show too. We love the country bears jamboree ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have never been a show fan in theme parks unless its for a special event. Like HallowScream at BG or Christmas Town. That being said I do really enjoy the Voyage of the Little Mermaid but I think that is because Ariel was my first love haha. Fantasmic is just amazing and I praying one day they make a Murphy for the Florida version!
Frozen I will run from at full speed haha
Festival of the LK is one my favs. Can't help but wonder if any of the performers were with or currently are with Cirque du Soleil
I love all the big shows (I.E. Fantasmic, Nemo, Happily Ever After) but a part of me wishes the small street shows got more recognition. Shows like Epcot's old street performers, the performers at Boardwalk Resort, & that FANTASTIC band in Harambe at Animal Kingdom. I guess most folks tend to prefer the massive productions but the small shows play a huge part in the overall experience as well.
I should totally do a video on the street and wandering entertainment that I like best. There are so many!
Trolley Show
Dapper Dans
Piano Player
Frontierland band
citizens of main street and hollywood
harambe band
mulch sweat and shears
and sooo many more!
this was my idea yayyyyy
We missed the Frozen show a year ago because we had to go visit family; now I am sorry because who knows if it will come back as you said.
Oh at DCA I mean!
I pretty much agree with your judgement. Question: Did you ever see TARZAN ROCKS? It was where Nemo is now. This show had great music, actors, and acrobats. A very high energy production telling the story of Tarzan. Really dissapointed when it got replaced. Also, another show that was not a regular, but a special one nighter, I saw on UTUBE. It was a production where they combined Star Wars & Indiana Jones in the Indy show building. It was FUN to watch. George Lucas attended.
Tarzan rocks closed just before our first visit to the park, so no, we never got to see it.
I've seen the one show on youtube that you mentioned. It looked like it was a lot of fun. :-)
I forgot about Tarzan. It was on roller skates. Skate boards. Pretty darn good
My two favorites are Disneyland's Fantasmic and Aladdin:A musical spectacular
The Aladdin musical in the Hyperion theater was amazing. Stupendous. I was disappointed when they closed it. We would see it twice in a day if I could.
Actually, I think the Up characters are gone from the bird show. Looked it up and it looks like it's a regular bird show again
It's hard to say if that's a temporary thing because of the covid changes (they were equity union members, and almost all of those entertainers aren't working at the moment, including performers in other shows) or if it's permanent. It's likely going to be a while yet before we find out.
I agree with you 1,000% on the Fantasmic show!! That’s my favorite show in all of Disney and I frequently watch videos on it on UA-cam when I miss Disney!
I had a blast watching it again while I was producing the segment of the video about it.
I don't know if it counts but my favorite fireworks was Disneyland Forever
If parades count, my absolute favorite is the Main Street Electrical Parade (Disneyland). To me, this was better than any theater show at Disneyland or California Adventure (I've never been to WDW at all). Other than that, Fantasmic is good, and I like the nostalgia of World of Color. The Paint the Night parade is a favorite of my wife, but I found it disappointing, except from a technical perspective. I hope things are going better for you now.
I was really surprised to see that you picked favorites.
me too. :-) Now that order may change tomorrow. Or even in the next couple of hours... Oh, and I forgot Candlelight, the Trolley show, the castle stages.... oh, yeah, and...
Nice shirt
I went to the frozen show kicking and screaming (my daughter was 6 at the time i had my fill of frozen) it was awesome 10 out of 10.
They did update the Beauty and the Beast show in early 2019
They also changed the propeller scene in indy because parents complained about it being too violent.
What changes did they make to the B&B show? Wondering if we saw them and didn't realize it.
And such a sad reason to change a show, but not the first time changes were made because of overreactions.
@@SirWillow they updated costumes for B&tB!!! The new costumes debuted in March 2019
@@disneydancerchick16 and @ally I took a look and the video clips in this are from July of 2019 which means what you're seeing in this ARE the new costumes. And comparing them to the photos I took in previous trips, even way back in 2006, and outside of some changes to Beast, they don't look any different.

When I went to wdw I saw Frozen sing along Little mermaid fantasmic country bear jambery tiki room pirate school Enchanted tales with Bell and the firework shows at magic kingdom and star wars one at hollywood studiod. Alot or them were awsome but my favorite was Enchanted tales with Bell and my least favorite was country bear jambery.
I can only talk about shows at WDW. The first show I was in love with was the 1985 Kids of the Kingdom show on the stage in front of the castle. I really love the Finding Nemo show, I think it's my favorite show ever. I also really loved The Hunchback of Notre Dame show when they had it, I was so disappointed when that one left. I like the Little Mermaid show a lot too. My least favorites are Lights Motor Action and Indiana Jones. I also really disliked the show that was on the castle stage for what seemed like years, something about Mickey's Dream. I was also not crazy about the Frozen singalong show. I enjoyed the original show in that theater where people went up and recreated scenes from classic TV shows. My son got to be Gilligan. Oh how I wish I had video of that! He was so cute. My favorite show of all time if you can call it a show is the Christmas show at EPCOT of course. Even though it's not a singalong I can't help but sing along lol. It is such a beautiful program with a famous actor reading the story of Jesus' birth from the Bible and the huge choir singing carols behind them. I get shivers down my back when they sing The Hallelujah Chorus, I always loved it when we sang it in my church choirs. I don't lump in in with the other shows, but it is just my favorite part of being in WDW during the holiday season.
I think Voyage of the Little Mermaid needs to go. It is so outdated. But I love Beauty and the Beast stage show and Indiana Jones Stunt Show. I think the reason I love the Indiana Jones show is because it brings back memories of when the park was Disney MGM Studios. But my all time favorite show was Tarzan Rocks. I loved that show.
I thought I’d see Animal Kingdom’s Rivers of Light in your worst list.
The only reason it wasn't on the list was simply because I didn't think about it. lol
I also forgot to put World of Color on the best list
I don’t suppose you were around in the parks when The Wiggles had their own show, were you?
Also! How do you feel about Snig & Oopla’s Star Wars Hoopla? (Is that what it was called?)
I’ve only ever seen em online and they’re obviously discontinued, but I loooved those ones to bits!
Honestly puts a smile on my face when the Wiggles sing “Point Your Fingers” and “Dance with Wags the Dog.” 🐶
And I absolutely lose my mind at all the female Star Wars characters dancing to modern pop songs, Padme and Aurra Sing especially 👀
Never saw the Wiggles. not sure when that was.
Snig and Oogla's was a special just for Star Wars Weekends. Absolutely hilarious and amazing shows, but not ones I counted since they were specials, not regular ones.
No doubt for me the Lion King show at animal Kingdom is my fave, The old bird show..BTW... before it came to Disney the show was at the Bronx Zoo in NY i think, I believe that was in the early 90's ..if it wasn't... Disney literally copied it
Fantasmic is the best
Aladdin by far.
Sorry, I side with your wife and daughter.
I'll pass on frozen any day, but never Beauty and the Beast..... Sorry, brother. I think the aging on it works for me, though it could be updated a bit....
I never saw the nemo show, but I did get to see something similar on ice some years back. You really do stop seeing the performers, and only see the characters!
Festival of the Lion king was my favorite. Even if I've only seen it twice
Never saw the littlemmermaid show either, but I do appreciate tyenpuppets against the black screen. Reminds me of old Jim Henson tricks..
The genie from alladin was always PERFECT. Every time.
It was a very faithful quick version of Aladdin. I loved when the Genie messed with Jafar, and he just had to stand there and take it until he was done.
I agree with your #1. Also love the Halloween shows. I go between those as my top so I add them all....
Fantasmic and Happily Ever After always manages to get me right in the feels. I feel it was a worthy successor to Wishes. Even if I have only seen it through videos here
I miss Lights, Motor, Action at Hollywood Studios. I get that they needed more room for Galaxy"s Edge. But still...😔 I like the Indiana Jones stunt show because it has action in it, and the show is aimed more at older audiences, which I like. Fantasmic is a great show, but both the DisneyLand version and the Hollywood Studios version could use a bit of an update. Don't get me wrong. Fantasmic is still a great show. But I think it's due for an update. I know Star Tours is a ride, not a show, but I think that attraction is past its prime and can go away. Maybe replace Star Tours with a Darth Maul meet-and-greet (when it’s safe to do so) or even just another restaurant or Dole Whip stand.
When is the last time you saw the Disneyland version? It's had several major updates in the last few years while the Florida version hasn't really had any. The pirates scene, Aladdin, the new dragon, and others
@@SirWillow Gosh...I can't remember when I saw Disneyland's version of Fantasmic last. Must have been probably 5 years ago. I don't go to Disneyland much. I prefer Disney World in Orlando. Maybe I'll give Disneyland in California another chance, if it ever opens back up again.
I'm one of the persons that dislikes Fantasmic. I've seen the DHS version 2 or 3 times and really didn't like it. It is the imagination/dream of Mickey and I feel it is almost exactly how you describe the Star Wars show; a parade of characters with no storyline. It features a lot of characters, without a reason; it features water screens with movie snippets, without a reason; It feature some boats with characters that aren't announced or woven into a story, there are just boats there out of the blue without a reason.
I really don't like it. I would describe it as a lame parade.
Fantasmic is much better at DL. The Up bird show was terrible. Being back Guano Joe!!!!
So Frozen ignored genders?
no, but it did ignore race
@@SirWillow thanks.
