CP narrators for 12/7-12/12???

[grad_dis_nut]

I have been checking at Deb's site every day hoping that the "TBD" will change to an actual name for the CP narrators the week of 12/7-12/12...but so far nothing!!! We have our dinner package booked and I can't wait to go.

So of course I'm imagining that it's either:

1. They can't find anyone to fill that week and we'll end up seeing it narrated by someone from upper management

OR

2. It's someone SO big they don't want to announce it and cause mass chaos!!!


Anyone have other info about the CP for that week??

Who is David Ogden Stiers?

 

[SoccerNut]

He played Charles Emerson Winchester in MASH. He also does voices for Disney. I know he was in the Hunchback and others.

Wow! I love David Ogden Stiers I think I'll just have to make the 6:15 show on the 12th just to see him LOL I can still tour the epcot resorts afterwards My night to do package and such is the 16 which I'm not wanting to change.

We saw David Ogden Stiers a few years back. He was excellent!! We are going on the 11th and I hope it is really him.
He sang along with the group and looked like he was enjoying himself immensely.

Thanks!

I'm glad to hear that people enjoyed David Ogden Stiers. My husband knew immediately who it was and is thrilled. He watches MASH reruns on the weekends....

We'll be there when Gary Sinise is narrating. We've never done the CP before...how early do you need to be there, best place to be...?

Dr. Jumba Jookiba in Lilo & Stitch

Sandi Patti is a christian singer. She has BEAUTIFUL voice. She is actually from my home state, Indiana! She performs locally at the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra Yuletide Celebration. She is very nice and well spoken. She is VERY popular for her christian and holiday music.

Oh boy we have had the CP package for the 7th booked for ages and we get miss America I think I will be looking to change the date!!

 

[Dennis the WDW Menace]

I called WDW this morning and they told me that they did not have the speakers finalized for 12/7 - 12/12. They did say that Rita Moreno may be extended but that it was not final. And the speaker for 12/10 - 12/12 was not final but they should have an answer within the next week.
I hope they get this soon because we would like to make a package rese. if it is someone good to see.

The person who posted it on wdwmagic said it was posted at the castmember rehersal. Another thing to remember is every year at least one celebrity drops out and has to be replaced. I'm going to just keep what I have (Dec 7), the times are what we wanted.

The current Miss America is a very well spoken young lady, and I am very glad that she was invited to participate in the Candlelight Processional, especially since Orlando is her hometown!

I look forward to hearing as many of the narrators as possible, and she is definitely on my list of "must sees".
