We always knew it was just here for THCOE and I'm actually relieved to see that they are staying true to their word so far. I always expected the replacement to be "Cinderella's Surprise Celebration," so the possibility of a different show replacing it is interesting.The final performance of Cinderellabration will take place on September 16th 2006, with the replacement show slated to open September 30th 2006. It is not yet clear what the replacement show will be.
Same here, Aaron! Wow. Maybe they'll have a Little Mermaid tie-in? "Arielabration"? "Ariel's Surprise Celebration"? "Ariel's Platinum Edition Party"?AwallaceUNC wrote:I always expected the replacement to be "Cinderella's Surprise Celebration," so the possibility of a different show replacing it is interesting.

Haha! That'd be awesome! On the other hand, now that I think about it, a Little Mermaid show would be awesome, but it would be difficult for her to perform unless they wheel her around on clam or something.TheLittleMerman wrote:"Ariel's Platinum Edition Party"?

NO! If Cinderella didn't get a Walt Disney World Platinum Edition party, they'd better not give that little mermaid one. Besides, you can bet that they will give her a shindig at the El Capitan, just like Cinderella got, as this suggests.TheLittleMerman wrote:Maybe they'll have a Little Mermaid tie-in? "Arielabration"?

If you miss seeing Cinderellabration, download the better, original show nowcrunkcourt wrote:I never sat through Cinderellabration and if I don't make it down before it closes I'll be disappointed, but not heart broken to see it go. I wouldn't mind seeing a new show either; but I have a feeling Cinderella's Surprise Celebration will return.

This is the same reason why Tarzan Rocks! was closed, because Tarzan came to Broadway. Now, they should have something for Ariel, so why not that dark-ride they planned (and we'll get to virtually ride on the DVD)?
Um ... since when? Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage! wasn't just shut down when Beauty and the Beast made it's Broadway debut. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Plus, DAK has Festival of the Lion King, which isn't the same as The Lion King on Broadway, but is still a stage show based on the movie.TheLittleMerman wrote:Disney Duster wrote:And by the way, Esacapay, The Voyage of The Little Mermaid is closing because of the Broadway show coming in 2007.

Whoops. I guess I was wrong. Apparently, the reason Tarzan Rocks! went was because it had a large cast and a live band, making it expensive, but The Voyage of The Little Mermaid has a small cast and a click track, so it's cheap. So it's good news that it's staying, but bad news because it makes a Mermaid dark-ride unlikely.TheLittleMerman wrote:
Sorry I confused everyone. Looks like Voyage is staying! I thought it was closed because of the largely unfavorable reviews from both critics and audiences!Disney Duster wrote:Whoops.

Tarzan Rocks! had unfavorable reviews? It was always one of my favorite shows whenever I went to Animal Kingdom. Or are you referring to the Broadway adaptation, which does have a mixed bag of reviews (mostly due to the fact that some portion of the audience can't see some portion of the show or something like that).TheLittleMerman wrote:I thought it was closed because of the largely unfavorable reviews from both critics and audiences!Disney Duster wrote: Whoops.

Sweet. Thanks for the info TLM! I wonder if Aurora will have a starring role or Cinderella or anyone for that matter. I liked that Cinderella had such a prominent role in Surprise Celebration.The Little Merman wrote:From WDWMAGIC.com Forums:
