I know the other day it said MIU was coming summer but now it's not showing at all. Will be interesting to see.
New 2019 Summer Shows

Not all shows get replaced... ?
What are you getting at Zachary? What do you know that we don't?
The interesting thing is that each year since 2014, the year that brought us London Rocks, there has been a new show added to the park. 2015 was Roll Out The Barrel, 2016 was All For One, 2017 was when both Britmania and OktoberZest were added and 2018 added Spark; so I can see that trajectory continuing in 2019.
I really hope any shows not returning get replaced at least. I go to the park at least once, often twice a week and sometimes I'm just not feeling waiting in lines for coasters and just want a chill stroll around the park taking in the atmosphere and grabbing a bite to eat and watching some shows. I understand that the park doesn't and shouldn't make decisions just based upon what I want, but from a personal standpoint, the more variety of shows, the more enjoyment I personally get out of the park.
Just a wild guess regarding the Italy theatre...with plans for Festa field and the close proximity of a portion of the construction/coaster footings placement...maybe they decided not to compete with construction sounds. Just a thought.
clearly hes getting at the fact the theater will probably sit empty this year - no italy pavillion show, which would probably be budget cut related.
That would stink, but then again it would give the Globe Theater something new in there this summer.
I was less specific than that for a reason. What I said before is just something to keep in mind for 2019 in general.
I’m sure the buy coke bonanza costs less money, but can we agree that all for one was the best show to come from the park since Celtic Fyre? Granted, that isn’t saying much when something known as the glitter monster is making your shows
Actually we can not agree on that. I might be willing to say best summer show but by far not the best show since Celtic.
No way I can even go that far. Give me the Aquitaine Village Band, Killarney Village Band, or the Italian Ensemble over All for One any day. Mix it Up too probably...
All For One's ambition and better utilization of the Royal Palace Theater was still better than Spark in spite of it's own flaws. Not to mention about the numerous times I saw it and being highly enjoyed with what I was watching.
All For One's "cheesiness" is what I think made it so likable and had tons of personality that was more memorable than the laser and pyro Coke ad. But if you prefer Spark over AFO then that's fine. Yet I wonder when the park will confirm with what's going on with the Globe and the San Marco this year.
I only managed to see AFO without some horrible fire-based mishap twice in its entire run. Maybe I had bad luck... or pyrokinetic powers... but I was not sad to see it go as it was clearly cursed.
I just had a thought: if San Marco is going to be empty this year, this is a great opportunity to bring back the Italian Ensemble. ?
Wasn't there a season where we thought there wouldn't be any new shows, but then they pulled one out of the blue? Shows can come off the shelf very last-minute, sometimes.
I think it was in 2013 when the GP were so offended and angry at the sudden departure for This is Oktoberfest! that the park management suddenly brought the show back despite the fact that it wasn't new. As for 2019, I predict that the Globe Theater will get an entirely brand new show while to save costs, the San Marco will sit empty for the spring/summer season. Maybe if they wanted to, they could bring in the Italian Ensemble for a small band and a singer seems to be an easy thing to pull off on a small scale.
