Unless something has changed, he is boss over the black shirt guys in Theatrical Services. They setup and maintain outside event stuff and work with Oak Island on some things they handle. TS also does inside work for HOS, some maintenance of regular park show theatrics not handled by Show Techs, and stuff like light replacement in Verbolten or Darkastle. I don't know that Peter would normally be involved with indoor shows like Scott.
The press release for the new show.
Hmm, "contemporary spin" and "light and shadow in the night" stood out to me. Should be an interesting experience.Busch Gardens Williamsburg said:

I have been told several times that this will not be a typical musical revue, but rather an action/stunt show. I bet this would be the time for the moat to return. They still have the original pump.
I've heard the same as CastleOSullivan over and over again. It sound like the park is aiming for a Eighth Voyage of Sindbad-style stunt production. I highly doubt we'll see a similar caliber of stunts or effects, but it sounds like it should be in a similar theatrical vein.
Lord Darkenon is the villain in the Poseidon's Fury special-effects show at Islands of Adventure, which is right next to the Sindbad show that Zachary mentioned.
My initial hopes for this show are that it will be less-dialogue dependent, have a good background soundtrack(especially for the action scenes), and definitely take advantage of the recently discovered use of pyrotechnics for RPT shows. Frankly, the park has their work cut out for them with this one, stunt shows will take a lot of planning in order to end up as grand and dramatic as a summer night-time RPT show requires. All I can say to the park is less-talking and more fireworks will not hurt the show at all. Luckily, Pete seemed very excited for this show and being the technician he is, hopefully the special effects of this show will be very well thought out.
Darkenon is basically just Seamus from Secrets of Castle O'Sullivan. That said, I would love for BGW to get Gary Goddard and those other people involved again. It's been long overdue.
Edit: The Eighth Voyage of Sinbad is exactly the type of show I fear. The set design is great, but the show is nothing but dialogue with random Hollywood effects mashed in. It would be a five minute show if you boiled it down just to the action.
If we could just have the set, we would be fine.

I am really hoping this show might be virtually dialogue-free.
And COS, be careful. I wouldn't recommend degrading Darkenon that way. He is the most powerful of all theme park villains.

If I don't return to the forums, give Poseidon a call.
I thought Scott G was the most powerful of all theme park villains.
