No word yet on a possibly replacement act.

I'm sure it'll be some much lamer act that works cheaper. That's generally been the way these things have gone recently.
 
Awww that makes me a bit sad! I loved watching them while I smoked in the section, made it feel a bit more authentic. I do wish Disney would stop removing these little bits of culture from the showcase.
 

The performers from the past in Italy that I miss the most is Masqurade. :( I thought they were superb. But then I like Cirque du Soleil a lot too. :)
 
Finally...a cut I can get behind!
I'm sorry, I just don't get being happy about a cut where there's no replacement simply because one didn't enjoy it. It's one less thing that people will stop and watch for a couple of minutes, actually some people might enjoy it. If I don't like an attraction or entertainment offering I simply walk away but it does give people something to do/watch. Just my opiinion

Well, to be fair, I am assuming that someday there will be a replacement...perhaps wishful thinking on my part. Kind of like how I will shed no tears over Stitch becoming "seasonal". I'm hoping that is the sign of an eminent demise of the attraction, to make way for something better.

Along with Nova Era, who was around the same time. (I think Masquerade may have been their replacement, in fact.)
 
I enjoyed them and stopped and watched any time we were there the same time they were out. They always reminded me of the movie Under the Tuscan Sun.
 
I was actually looking forward to seeing them (for the first time).
 
I've only seen them once, but I enjoyed watching them.

Sad. Just another example of Disney taking things that we enjoy away from us.

Going to throw in one of pictures, I always enjoyed the show. Hopefully they will be replaced with something just as neat but I've got this feeling we might not see a replacement anytime soon (if ever).
