The Laugh Floor Comedy Club ?

[mom22boys]

Does anyone have details about this new attraction at MK? Where will it be? Is it a ride or a show? Will it appeal to all different age groups? Sorry if this topic has already been discussed. I tried to do a search for it, but the search engine kept freezing.

Much thanks for any info you can share!

It's going to be in Tomorrowland, where the Timekeeper used to be. I've heard it's going to be similar to Turtle Talk at Epcot...basically it's going to be a show with seating. I guess Mike Wazowski will be the character on the screen interacting with kids, trying to make everyone laugh. Evidently there's going to be some kind of "laugh meter"; it is the Monsters job to get everyone to laugh enough to power Monstropolis (since group laughter is evidently more effective than individual laughter!). I got this info from this past weekend's Inside the Magic podcast.

I saw this on WDWmagic:

The Laugh Floor Comedy Club (Early 2007)

This all-new Tomorrowland experience, scheduled to debut in early 2007, gives Magic Kingdom guests the opportunity to participate in a live, interactive comedy show with some of their favorite characters from Monsters Inc., including Mike Wazowski.

Having discovered that "laughter is 10x more powerful than scream,"The Laugh Floor at Monsters Inc. has been trasnformed into a comedy club for visiting humans- the goal: gather big laughs and plenty of them.

The "monster of ceremonies" for this funny bussiness is Mike Wazowski. It was his idea to try for group laughs by bringing a bunch of humans to collect laughs in bulk, rather then visiting one closet at a time.

Management, as represented by Roz, is not exactly sold on the idea, so the preasure is on Mike to make his scheme work. Various animated monster comedians take the "digital" stage to build the laughs, while a laugh canister and board measure the amount of laughter to make sure Mike achives his goal.

Mike and his fellow comedians provide interactive oppurtunites for guest participation, using classic techniques such as improv and of playful teasing.

I started a thread on the community board about this and it wasn't received kindly. One person actually said it was lame and a waste of space. Another one also said Crush was enough.

As I said if it is anything like Crush I can't wait! I sure hope it is up and running in March when we are going there!

Thanks for the info! I hope it will be running by May 2007. It sounds cute to me. I loved Monsters Inc.
