RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

Does anyone know if the Maypole dance show has/will return to the circle in front of the Festhaus this year?
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

Not sure about the maypole but here is some more news about the new show.

The show features chickens exclusively that are puppets. They will interact with guests before/after the show. The chickens featured will each have their own style or stereotype. And hopefully by Monday or Tuesday we can see what the area will look like.
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

I hope these chickens are not like the animatronic cat that use to sit on a crate over in New France ...... can we say CREEPY! :s If so I will be staying away from that show like the plague!
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

The chickens are puppets like the puppets in Ireland. The performers can control them from the bottom black part of the coop while the puppet sits in the top half.

So it's Sesame Street bleeding into other areas. INB4BigBirdIsInTheShow.
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

Only 4 of the 6 coops are up outside the Festhaus, there is more to come. I'll try to post pictures up tonight.

I hope we get a new illumiNights Soundtrack CD!

Also,

I think all Busch Gardens Parks should have the same special event names.

Summer- illumiNights
Fall- Howl-O-Scream
Winter- Christmas Town

Busch Gardens Tampa should have their summer spectacular named illumiNights to and not Summer Nights.

Summer Nights is for the SeaWorlds.

We could see a new soundtrack with the new show. Not only do they need new show music but they need a new 'Tour of Oktoberfest' song for the fireworks display since the old one was an abbreviated version of the old shows music.
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

Ya'll might not believe this, but I actually think the chicken coup thing sounds alright.

I mean, what do you want them to do? People do like the chicken dance.

Now, if it were me, I would put on some sort of Spectromagic version of the old TIO show for Illuminights, given that the square in front of Oktoberfest is enormous and a central focal point for guests, but this farmyard thing sounds okay. Certainly no worse than that awful glockenspiel they had out there.
 
RE: IllumiNights 2012 Rumors

Apparently so much more is to come with the setup of the Oktoberfest Illuminights show. The center circle stage is raised and the stage floor reads 'Black Forest Farms'.
I will try to get pictures, I almost had a few pictures up the other day but i was running late on a few things.
