It was reported in the Disney Parks blog that the final performance for Magic, Memories, and You will be September 3 (Labor Day). IASW will then be transformed for the annual SW Holiday. However, Magic, Memories, and You will not return. Instead a new live entertainment experience will debut at the Fantasyland Theatre.

The show is pretty cool, and I'm hoping that the new show will be similar, but maybe without the photos...

It's about time a new SHOW is put into Fantasyland Theatre!!!! :D

I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll do with the Fantasyland Theatre. I think the last time I saw something there was when Pocahontas had a show...or something.

I think Hunchback was playing there when we were last at DL. If I'm thinking of the right theater that is...

Hunchback was over at the Big Thunder Ranch...and we LOVED that show! We were upset when they took it away. :(
The last thing I remember in Fantasyland Theatre was the Snow White Musical. We didn't care for it too much.
I remember the Disney Afternoon Revue, Dick Tracy, Beauty and the Beast, Pocahontas and (my favorite) Animazement all in that theatre...and I vaguely remember Videopolis waaay back in the day. We never really went over there...at the time, I was much more interested in IASW. :shock:

It will be very interesting to see what they do with it. My hope is that it will be a show that entertains everyone...boys, girls, adults young and old...and not something that focuses on a single story. That's what I loved about Animazement. There were several characters (Belle, Aladdin, Hunchback, Pocahontas, Lion King) and it appealed to both boys and girls.

You probably saw the Snow White show, I think that was the last stage show they put on there. If I recall, the rumor as to why that abruptly ended was that management fired a large portion of the actors because they were drunk at work.
