Forest of Fun 5th Birthday

[Hoopla]

Looks like they are celebrating FOF's birthday also. Here is the description front he website:


Join us at Busch Gardens When Sesame Street forest of fun turns five this April.
Guests are invited to join Elmo and his friends April 4,5, and 6 for a special Birthday celebration At sesame street forest of fun. A special show, Elmo rocks!, will perform daily in the teatro di San Marco theater all weekend long!

Great... I'm scared to see Elmo Rock! At least it's only for a weekend. :s

A Mix It Up replacement perhaps? Apparently not even Italy is safe from Sesame Street's touch.

 

[Zachary]

Well that's what happens when they don't have anything else to fill Il Teatro di San Marco... :-X

Guess I should start talkin' in another thread soon...

 

[Planeteer]

Maybe Elmo will walk out!

 

[Party Rocker]

Is every show going to have 'Rocks!' at the end of it now?

 

[Hoopla]

At least it's only for three days, but even that's hard to bare. 

PR: I can see it now; Oktoberfest Rocks!!

 

[Hoopla]

I'm afraid if they decorate the theater. If they do, I will completely walk around Italy!

 

[MAZ]

I'm going to be the 1st one to say, I'm looking forward to taking my little girl to this!!!

 

[Jrbgwfan06]

Well, I won't be going that weekend...

 

[chickenking]

^^Ditto!!  Elmo loves you...

 

[Party Rocker]

I will be sure to try my best to be there and get a video recording of the show. Keyword being try. I am still trying to work only some video recoding skills and some microphone issues.

Oh, great... You better speak up, I'm not good with suspense.

For the record, this show plays at some of the other Busch parks as well, so it's nothing new. There's a very high chance this will be the exact same as the version they play at Sesame Place and the other parks.

 

[Party Rocker]

Just out of curiosity, what shows are you referring to exactly. As far as I would think, each park has their own Sesame Street section with a show already. Are you saying some have more than one different show? Obviously Sesame Place does.

I don't think anyone is saying it is a new concept for the company but a new concept for our park in specific because you are applying a conflicting theme to an already themed area (Elmo in Italy) and there is little to no chance that the themes will match (Italian Elmo).

For those who hold theme to be important and the reduction of making the park overly-kidsiderate, it can be an issue. I will not go into the degree of importance for theme, but you catch my drift I'm sure.

One  anniversary celebration I wished they had skipped.

 

[Jrbgwfan06]

I'd much rather this money go to a celebration for AC, but that wouldn't make sense in our marketing department, now would it?

 

[Planeteer]

It's 3 days people.  I am more excited hoping there will less teenagers those three days because of it!  LONG LIVE ELMO!

The show will most likely be this. I think it's cute and better than a few recent shows the park put out.

 

[Nicole]

Elmo is icky.  Never liked him.

If you got the calendar it said "Come and check out our new shops in Italy!"( Not sure if that is exactly what they said) I wonder if it will have any relation to the show maybe some Elmo merchandise.
