Man I wish I could be there Dec 13-15. I LOVE Steven Curtis Chapman

I'll be there the 19th and Sandi Patti is great too so I'm not complaining.

Thanks for posting this I've been calling for this information for weeks now and hadn't checked lately.

I went 2 years ago and Robby Benson was the narrator.
He was great!

I have TBA I'm sure I will enjoy who ever is guest narrator,last year we had John Tesh and he was great.

Well, looks like we are getting "stuck" with Rita Moreno . I love her, but would much rather have Andy Garcia, Robby Benson, or Ben Vereen

 

[disneyfan551]

Don't shoot me... but, who is Andy Garcia? He will be our narrator also!

 

[LOVETHATMOUSE]

Only a great actor, gorgeous man, sexy.... must I say more

 

[disneyfan551]

Woohoo!! I can handle that!!

I hope James Avery is one of the TBA's, we loved him last year. We have reservations for the package on 12/7 and plan to do standby on 12/11, both are TBA.

Yeah, this year I get Gary Sinese. Hubba Hubba. Liutenant Dan.
I missed him last year by one day. I saw Jodi Benson and wasn't as thrilled with her as other narrators I had seen in the past.
I bet Robby Benson would be great, that voice is fantastic. But I can't get to the park until the 27th so I will miss him again.
I saw it a few years ago when Levar burton was the narrator and he was the best narrator I have ever seen. He was so enthralled with the person who was doing the sign language. She looked like she was floating across the stage, she was so expressive, and he couldn't take his eyes off her movements. His look was awe at the way she was expressing herself.
He also introduced his dad to us, who works at WDW and his wife and family. That was nice too, he truly loves his family.

One of the TBA dates is Marlie Matlin according to our South Florida paper this morning.

 

[KCritter]

Webray, did it say which dates? We'll be there for the TBA dates. We saw Marlee Matlin a couple of years ago, and she was pretty good. My favorite is still Phylicia Rashad, she has such a smooth voice.

 

[DebbieB]

I saw on another thread that Steven Curtis Chapman replaced Marlee Matlin, who is expecting her 4th child this winter. Not sure which is correct.

For those who saw Marlee Matlin before, I know she signs, is there a speaker who reads along?

 

[KCritter]

DebbieB, when we saw Marlee Matlin a couple of years ago, she signed and another castmember from the West Wing was there to narrate out loud. I can't remember his name though (not a big West Wing fan.)

 

[webray]

Nope, it didn't list the date, sorry...just her name, along with one other, that was already listed in the above post as who would be reading this year.
