Whole I cannot speak to the child preformers in the past adult performers were given all the same perks as Frontline employees I would be very surprised if that had changed.
Scrooge No More!
- Thread starter BGW Family
- Start date
I feel like the kids today don't know about this show's origins.
I remember when this unused version was rumored to possibly be happening right off the heels of London Rocks. The reactions were gold. 
I sometimes wonder if the park made up that description to lower expectations for the show or to surprise people. Based on concept art that the park posted one season outside the Globe Theatre (which had dates on them originally) the set and projections for the non-rock Scrooge No More were designed at least two years before the announcement that Zachary quoted was given. Both productions might have been in the works at the same time, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the rock version of the show was just a red herring.
That said, a lot of the music in Scrooge No More (especially Just Leave Me Alone) sounds sort of rock-like, so who knows what happened between that announcement and the show’s debut.

If my memory is correct he shaw not be named was let go from his position of head of entertainment after the rock version had been revealed and before the final version was created so it seems entirely possible that the original plan was for a rock version with lost of glitter.
Scott left in Spring 2015, months after Scrooge No More opened.

Also, it is clear from this post that Scott was deeply involved in the rewrite:

Scott Gasparich Has Left the Building
Before anyone casts any doubt on this fact, let me make something clear: The following tweets are 100% sincere. I truly wish Scott Gasparich all the best with wherever he decides to go from here. Lets remember the great things that happened while he was Entertainment VP rather than dwell on the...

Does this differ from past descriptions?
Actually, I just started from page one of this thread and found the original description buried in someone’s post. It has, in fact, changed:

Probably sick cast member, broken lights, or something else.
If it is the projector, they should take this opportunity to put a good one in.
Also, has anyone noticed in the graveyard scene where they project Ebenezer Scrooge onto the grave stone, the cast member that is moving that stone is moving way before that projection is finished?
A new projector wouldn't really fix that. That is purely a casualty of there being one projector onto a projection surface of depth. Only one distance from the projector can be in focus, everything else will be slightly out of focus.
The solution would be a 3D mapping projector, right?
Anyone heard anything about an accident that occurred at Scrooge where one (or more?) performers were injured? Heard that’s why Scrooge has been cancelled. Just wondering if anyone else has heard that or has insight.
I haven’t heard that, but it appears that Scrooge is supposed to be back up and running tomorrow… looked at the schedule and Scrooge is on there.
EDIT:
Just looked, (I looked like 4 hours ago and it was there) and Scrooge is now off the show list for tomorrow. As are Unto Us and Haustop.
