I just saw this....

The Ziti Sisters, a music and comedy act, will give their last performance 2/22/14.

Bummer! I really enjoyed their show.

Another Epcot entertainment bites the dust.

This is very disheartening. And if they aren't replacing it with something that's even worse.

This makes me so sad...

I understand that Disney needs to periodically change out the entertainment at their parks. I really enjoyed the Ziti Sisters and often chatted with Krista (a former Comedy Warehouse regular) after their show. Will miss them but will also look forward to seeing what ever replaces them.

I have a feeling their replacement will be along the lines of what replaced the Countdown to Fun parade, Disney Channel Rocks, and various other entertainment from Epcot...nothing.

Yep

And PUSH now the next casualty in the entertainment trimming fest!

So we lose the legacy FP system that worked so well for years, and now they run over budget with their MM+ system and we lose our entertainment to help buffer the shortfall?

From the Ziti Sisters FB page:

With a very heavy heart. The Ziti sisters will be no longer perform in Epcot. We have thoroughly enjoyed every second in the Piazza and "our second home" We are going back to Italy. Ciao! Grazie Mille! We will miss you all terribly. Arrivaderci Amici. This page will remain to share your memories and photos with us. We love you! This was not our decision....

and:

"I am so very sorry to have to say that on February 22nd The Ziti sisters will perform their last show @ Epcot. I have never been so honored to work with such amazing women on stage and share a green room. The full time cast as well as the subs, are the most talented, kind generous, brilliant, motivating, smart, beautiful, seasoned, and uplifting women I have ever met. I absolutely adored working everyday. The staff, the costumers all of our managers, the voices of Liberty, the fife and drum core all made my experience working at Epcot one of the finest most happy times I've had in my life. Thank you all for being a part of all of this. It is time for the next chapter , with every door closed, another one opens.. The brightest rainbows are created by the hardest rains."

And people keep going. Until it hits them where it hurts this is the trend.

(My visits however are way down and my spending is practically nil at this point! I don't want to overpay for subpar food. I do one big Food &Wine trip and that's about it for a trip that Disney would appreciate. Last weekend I was in the area and dropped into two parks and spent....NOTHING!
