A Star Wars fireworks spectacular is an idea whose time has come -- in fact, it's long overdue! We gave our guests a little taste of what we could do with Star Wars in "Sorcery in the Sky" at Disney's Hollywood Studios and "Remember...Dreams Come True,"
Disneyland's 50th anniversary fireworks spectacular. But we have been waiting our entire careers to design an entire Star Wars fireworks spectacular, and "Symphony in the Stars" is just that.
John Williams gave us some of the most memorable music in film history with his scores for the six Star Wars films, and we'll be using the best of the best to transport our guests to a galaxy far, far away. But it's more than just amazing music. We've also jam-packed the show with memorable dialogue and sound effects from all six Star Wars films, so odds are that if you love it, then it's in there.
It was quite a challenge to try and tell the entire Star Wars story in 12 minutes, but I think we've done that through all the beloved John Williams music, classic lines from George Lucas and Lawrence Kasdan, and Ben Burtt's sound effects that we've selected for the show. Everyone who has listened to our soundtrack has had a strong emotional reaction to it based on their love for the Star Wars films, so I can only imagine how fans are going to react when they see this show unfold before them in the skies above Disney's Hollywood Studios. My only regret is that we're only going to do this once!
