Epcot Christmas Storytelling?

[dawnsb]

DH and I want to listen to the storytelling in the WS at Epcot when we visit. Does anyone have the times from last year so we can see the spacing between the different countires?

Thanks!

I whish I had the times, but they are spread out that it you may need a great part of the afternoon to hear them all. They are really cool.

I have the times at home from when we went last year. I can check it out over the weekend and post if you still need it (knowing all these wonderful DIS people I am sure someone will answer you before I get home from work tonight). I do remember they were around 4 to 6 times per day in each country and if you worked it out starting in Mexico and just did the storyteller and then headed to the next country you could catch them in order. They also do a little autograph signing and picture taking thing after each story and each story last 10 to 15 minutes. We used the picture with Mr. and Mrs. Clause from America as our card last year.

Don't forget about the Candlelight Processional and the Christmas Tree Lighting each night.

Thanks for the info so far. I would like the hours, just to have an idea of the timespan. I was hoping to start in a country, like Mexico, and make our way around the WS.

We're doing the CP on a day we are taking a tour in the MK in the morning; I'm planning on devoting an entire afternoon for the storytelling.

Click Here for info from Steve Soares' site on the Epcot Santa's and Holiday Storytellers. Times are included. I hope this helps. Maggie

See, I knew one of the wonderful people on the DIS would respond before I got home from work tonight. Some of the performers seem a little different from when we went last year. We did not have the 3 Kings in Mexico - we had a storyteller tell us about how families went from house to house on Christmas eve and we had a Nutcracker in Germany. Did not read the whole thing so I am not sure what else, if anything, was different. I guess they change things occassionally for people that do this ever year.
Enjoy - Linda

I tried to do that-one tip that helped me plan was that I rearranged everything so that I could see what country at 12:30, then the next time, then the next time, etc. and made my plans from that. I must admit though, there's so much overlap ("Oh, how can you be in two places at once?") that it took me 2 days to see them all.

Wow! I didn't expect that much detail. Thanks for the link!

Thanks so much for the link. Last year we took at picture of each sign and each storyteller/Santa but we missed Italy. With a last name like Pizzuro how could I do that. Anyway, I made a screen print of the sign from this website and will add it to my photo album. Not quite as good as the ones from the other countries but now my book is complete.
