Once Upon a Time Projection Show to replace Celebrate the Magic

[TheDisneyNurse]

Does anyone know why Disney pipes the music for Wishes / Fireworks to various locations, but not the video projections?

Good question! From my experience, you really can't make out the projections from places like 'Ohana. Castle's way too small.

Thanks Rteez,

We sometimes watch Wishes from the top of the Contemporary where you can clearly see the castle. But it makes sense that you probably can't see it from anywhere else.

If you can see the castle I wonder why they don't pump the music in there. However I would assume again it's because of visibility else where.

As already noted, the show looks to be always AFTER Wishes. I am wondering Disney's reasoning behind this. It's a projection show and could easily be shown more than once per night. Especially with the current absence of a night time parade. Why not show it more than once like CTM??

So this show doesn't have any characters or dancers on the stage? Is that right?

The show is told as a bedtime story from Mrs. Potts to Chip. It's a 14 minute show that will start 15 minutes prior to the park closing. Throw in the Kiss Goodnight and it's a perfect way to close down the Magic Kingdom in my opinion. I personally think the theme of this show makes it really only work in that method.

Ok.....but this show will not always start 15 minutes prior to closing. Thanksgiving week it is being shown once at 10:45 with a midnight closing at MK.

Should have investigated further on my part. The first few days I looked showed it playing 15 minutes prior to closing. I guess my theory was wrong then.
