Hoop dee doo dining show - anyone done this - few questions

[MrsJobba1]

Hi
I'm trying to find things that dh & I have never done - this is one of them . I believe it's at fort wilderness - I've looked at menu and food etc sounds great - what I'm concerned about is the interaction and audience participation . Dh is quite quiet and hated whispering canyon -I've read that cat 3 seats are above and there is less chance of getting targeted - if indeed you are targeted at all?

I would value any ones opinion / review
Thanks

No one gets "targeted" - it's a great fun show.

We have had cat 2 seating each time and never been asked - they do ask discreetly so you can so no anyway.

Thank you so much - I feel safe booking it .
Is there a ' best time' I was thinking the 4 0r 6.30
Does it have a Wild West theme?
The only thing I really know is the menu and that sounds good!

We did it and it was great fun. It has a Wild West / Music Hall theme with lots of cheesy comedy and songs - all good family fun. The food was good and the sangria was a bonus

We wished we had been seated closer to the action!

We did it last time and have booked again this year. None of us particularly like being singled out and were happy just joining in with everyone else. The show is very cheesy, but if you are happy immersing yourself in old time Western music hall (think Calamity Jane style entertainment) then you will have fun.

We went last summer. We had booked category 1 and had a table right in front of the stage and even then we weren't picked on although we certainly felt part of it all. It was good fun. It was full of songs and silly humour.

We have been twice, first time I booked it as a surprise for my DS who was celebrating his 11th birthday. We loved it, very silly, great but plain food, lots of included drink. Nice servers but nothing to embarrass those of us who are stereotypical reticent Brits.

Sure you will love it :

Wish I was going with you again, 2 great nights we shared there. Say hello to Gloria for me and don't upset her by moving the tables.

We have also been to Hoop de Doo a couple of times, and we all really enjoyed it. It is 2TS credits, but you have wine/beer and tip included, as well as "refills" on your empty food "pails".

If you are staying on-site, they have buses back to the other resorts but not to get there - on the way there, you generally have to catch a bus to a park then over to Fprt Wilderness, then the internal bus to the location.

We've been a few times and sat in cat 1 and cat 2 seating. The food and drinks are great and the show is very entertaining. We find the earlier show is better. It's easy to get there by boat from Magic Kingdom and the boat ride is a great start to the evening. There is the advantage that the boat dock is within easy walking distance of the hall. If you go to the early show you should be finished early enough to get the boat back too. The bus takes a bit of time.
The best bit about the show is watching the kids roaring with laughter at the silly humour.
