HDDR is one of my favorite dining experiences in Disney and a must do each trip! It is so much fun and the food is so good... just make sure you are hungry before you go, it is a lot of food! I cannot say enough great things about this dinner show.. The actors are hilarious, the jokes are meant to be corny but it never gets old and they keep us laughing every time we go. We have never done the 8:30 show- if you do tend to eat later, than stick with this show. We always do the 6:15 show.. not too early at 4pm and it is not too late for us.. it is the perfect dinner time for us.
Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get there. Not sure if you will have a car or using the buses... We always do a park at rope drop, head back midday to the resort to rest and swim and get ready for dinner and we leave the resort an hour or more before the show time. We always take the bus to MK and the boat to FW. We like to give ourselves more time because the line for the boat can get long and don't want to miss it and have to wait for the next one.
Enjoy HDDR! You won't be disappointed!
