RE: New Das Festhaus Show for 2013

Thanks, Party Rocker, I was just wondering because the last season they started off with the usual show. They had the song In München steht ein Hofbräuhaus and used to say...sing along..and we always laughed because..who would know German lyrics to that? And we vowed as a family to learn the lyrics and sing along and then they changed the show. It was still German but did the Goatherd song and new dancing and wasn't even run the whole year. And next year Entwined took over so that was such a short run for a newish show that I had to wonder.

Are you referring to the Maypole show outside the Festhaus perhaps? This is Oktoberfest hasn't been in the Festhaus since 2011.

This is great news. There really hasn't been much news to get me excited about this year. Maybe the food and wine festival but we need some details.

Closest you can get to an Oktoberfest-style show this year was Wunderbarn, which had a number of dance routines at the beginning of the show.

don't forget about the chicken dance! [severely disappointed there is not a chicken dance emoticon to choose from]

These are the years that get me most excited. It's when the park is quiet that big things soon will come our way.

I'm just reading this for the first time tonight. Well, I for one am still trying to catch my breath after reading about this news! Now I'm not unhappy at all that I didn't receive a response to my 5-page novel I wrote to BGW at the end of the summer season last year! LOL I thought I was fairly well restrained in that letter...but at the same time, it was without a doubt the most critical letter I ever sent them (and I've been writing them for years with my thoughts on the park...whether it be a show, a ride, whatever). I'd like to think that my input helped this to happen. Actually...I don't care. TIO is coming back. Today is a VERY good day for me (and that's saying alot!). LOL Thanks for the happy news!!!
 
RE: New Das Festhaus Show for 2013

I'm ecstatic to hear this! Not much to add other than:

There IS hope for The Old Country.

If anyone who had anything to do with this decision reads this, thank you.

Thank you.

Now I think I'll go home, open a beer and put on some oompah music to celebrate. :)

I could see them doing Entwined-style previews but I don't expect it to debut that early in the season.

I would be very happy if they added a new German show somewhere in Oktoberfest. Does anyone think that's likely?

Absolutely not.

Seems we got our impossible wish, CastleOSullivan. ;) Now we just have to hope it's of quality, not just relying on the acrobats to carry the show...

It was reverse psychology; I knew the truth all along.
 
RE: New Das Festhaus Show for 2013

I was being facetious. ;)

ANYWAY... I really hope it's not the somewhat character-driven version from 2011 with the addition of barrel-rolling gymnasts. Anyone have any insights?
 
RE: New Das Festhaus Show for 2013

The Festhaus is also getting it's roof replaced along with The Globe Theatre before the park opens, perhaps this will give them an opportunity to work on a few other things in the Festhaus?
