What happened to the old Sergio entertainer in Italy Pavillion???

[k5thbeatle]

I knew this act had been cancelled a few years back but I was pleasantly surprised to see it listed again only see it's a different guy playing Sergio? Just curious if anyone knows what happened to the original guy or why he wasn't brought back???
Thanks

no clue about the backstory, but we were there last week when Sergio showed up and we and the crowd appeared to enjoy the show

It’s so funny. It was always the same original guy, who we really enjoyed for years, so I thought the actual guys name was Sergio. Lol. I didn’t realize it was just the name of the act.

The new guy was okay, but I miss the original guy. I suppose he moved on.

We noticed that in October. He was good, but it wasn't the same.

The original Sergio has been undergoing major surgery. You can find his page on Facebook.

Thanks for the info.
Hopefully he’ll be able to come back to Epcot one day.

Do you mean the guy that was there prior to the shutdown in 2020? I had read about all his injuries and was hoping one day he would be healed enough to come back.

No, this one who was at the beginning, his name’s Sergey so show was called Sergio

Sergio has always been one of my top 3 Epcot WS entertainers that we make a point to see every trip! Hope he's doing well and is there for our trip in Sept!

Are times for his show listed in the MDE app? For whatever reason I've never seen his show, yet after all this talk, I really want to see it. How will I know when/where he's performing?

Just saw him. Made my heart happy knowing he had a such a long journey to return.

The original Sergio is back? I know when the act returned it was with a different actor.
