Canada Entertainment in Epcot

[BeerMe]

I think it's called Les Parfaits. It was embarrassingly amateurish. It was really bad. That's just my opinion, but.......

 

[TSR6]

....but....but....is it worse than this???

Seriously, they should just bring back Off Kilter or something similar.

I liked the lumberjacks! But those "parfaits" with bags on their head...have only seen video...but no, just no.

Well, they've apparently installed a revolving door on the Mill Stage. They'll be gone soon enough.

My kids loved the Lumberjack show. While I wouldn't consider it to have been a "must do", it was entertaining and much truer to the Epcot World Showcase vision than a band playing cover songs.

I thought it was OK.

I watched it once and was done... didnt care to stop while walking through the remainder of our trip. Off Kilter usually got me for a full set, and then a song or two as I'm passing through each time I circle the lagoon.... and we go to Food & Wine... so I usually make many laps. lololol

I'm thrilled they'll be gone before our trip in September.

. . . . . than a band playing cover songs.

left out one word - "loudly"

 

[PanamaMike]

I know Off Kilter had many fans but to me they were always noise to be avoided.

Happy to hear that the Canadian Navy will be in town sailing the World Showcase Lagoon while we are there in November, almost like fleet week here in NY but on a smaller scale.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. I'll just say that a lumberjack show fits the theme of learning about other cultures more than a cover band does. Off Kilter is great and puts on an enjoyable show though.

Really, you liked a show where we showed kids fun things to do like throw axes at people Or how to waste natural resources on a amazing scale to the tune of loud engines. (I found it very ironic that at one park we had a ride themed around the bad loggers and at another we showed them in action! )

Yep every six months at least from what I hear.

Wow, I've seen not so nice comments on here before, but never had one directed towards me. Didn't expect the comment to set it off would be, "I liked the lumberjacks!"

Lumberjacks are actually a big part of our heritage especially here in the west... Tell your kids not to throw sharp objects at each other unless they have special training and enjoy the show. Logging is a huge part of Canadian industry, it's not something we're ashamed of.

Is Off Kilter gone for good? As Great Big Sea fans (similar style of music ), my whole family loved them! I feel like that style of music is so Canadian, I would love to have Off Kilter or somethingsimilar back.

 

[ravenclawtrekkie]

As someone who liked the lumberjacks... This show is embarrassingly bad. I went to see it with literally zero expectations and spent the whole time going "what am I watching?"

When five guys run out with paper bags on their heads and one of them is playing maracas, you know you're in for SOMETHING.

I haven't seen it, but as a Torontonian, I am absolutely mystified as to what any of the current stage show has to do with Canada based on what I have read about it.

I have a couple of Canadian friends who were mortified at this show. Of course I expect they will also be mortified by the current show. According to them Disney seems determined to make Canadians look bad.

It should also be noted that logging is a renewable resource and that all logging companies are legislated to replant. I am from a logging town in Canada and I am also very proud of our heritage.
