ARe the stepsisters still at 1900 Park Fare?

[queenbee99]

Or have there been changes? I heard they weren't there but want to confirm. If they aren't there, we won't schedule this again. Thanks!

We are going in July and would like to know also!

I agree, they almost make up for the less than stellar offerings on the buffet table. Without them, it is a no go for 1900 PF.

We have ADR's there for our trip this July. The stepsisters are the only reason we are going there. I hope they will be there then.

My brother and his family were just there in May. They went at Dinner, and yes they were there! My nephew got kissed by one of the step sisters

I can confirm as well that they were there in early May. Unfortunately, they weren't as interactive or as funny as I had heard and hoped. They just did the regular walk around and posing for pics and seemed very rushed. I tried to engage one of them in some light banter when she was posing with my daughter and she wasn't remotely interested in "participating".

I was a bit dissapointed with the entire dinner...had heard great stories of kids dancing with Cinderella and the Prince, and the stepsisters and stepmother sitting down and interacting with people and there was absolutely none of that going on. My 2 year old son asked for a hug from the stepmother and she refused....I know they are supposed to be in character and that it was probably part of the "act" but the poor kid was devastated and just kept saying "the lady cannot give me a hug??" for the rest of the night. She could have given him a hug and rolled her eyes or something while she did it to remain in character.

They were there the second week in May. Anastasia actually sat down with a family for quite a while. I think they were looking at all of the signatures in their autograph books. Anastasia called Lady Tremaine over and they sat there for a while. I didn't get to talk to the stepsisters much, but Lady Tremaine was AWESOME. Probably the best character interaction I've ever had was with her!

Oh yes!

They're there, and they are HYSTERICAL!

They WERE there in September, but we went for dinner the first week of April, and they were NOT. I noticed that everyone is saying that they were there in May, so I don't know- maybe it was just a temporary absence. In April, it was Cinderella, Prince Charming, stepmother, and fairy godmother was walking around.

You didn't happen to go on May 5th, did you? Because that was when we were there and our experience was very similar. The stepsisters were funny for the 30-45 seconds they were at our table, but that was it.

Close...we were there May 8th so perhaps the same castmembers??

Maybe so. Our 16month old son was fascinated with the step-sisters and kept trying to grab their dresses when they walked by. My DW tried to make a comment to one of them and was completely blown off.

Another person who saw them recently and was disappointed! They are not at all the "characters" they use to be. They are a quick breeze through, and don't do the usual antics they use to do. I know myself and another guest at another table tried to get Anastasia to sing and she wouldn't do it. They use to be a hoot...running around screaming, yelling, singing....now they just breeze by, do their thing quickly (and not that well) and move on. We have decided we probably won't bother with this meal again.
