Interesting.

[vj81995]

We might go see it.

:eek: .................................OMG! The characters mouths move. You can see it in the video. WOW!

Anyway, believe it or not, I was introduced to the one of the men worked on this production (the name escapes me, I'll ask). He's a puppet-maker, so his involvement in the show is something I'm not sure about. The show was built at the Township Auditorium, about 30 miles from my home and 5 miles from work. The tour also happened to start at the Township and is making its way to you!

how do the mouths move? that seems completely unrealistic.

[stevo505]

I'm not sure how they movie, but like some puppets, the mouths move animatronicly. So that's what I think.

I wouldn't really want to go see that, no offense but it looks kinda dumb.

[vj81995]

But how would the people inside the costumes movie the mouths if they have to move the hands too? Can someone PLEASE explain this to me?

Maybe the dialog is recorded and they're cued remotely by radio to match, sort of like a wearable audio-animatronic?

[LoehnWolf]

Myabe its something along the lines of what is employed on the Lion King Stage productions? Multiple puppeteers per puppet? I think this is something more geared towards children anyway since Playhouse Disney is mostly childrens TV.

[vj81995]

This is also a stage show tour.

Mickey's Magic show is not playing in WDW, but is on tour only

[TsWade2]

What a coincidence! I'm going to see it at the Kodak Theatre in two weeks. WHEE!

[sora_145]

Maybe your getting it mixed up with our version of Fantasmic? It's completely different from yours.

[Lighttech1]

The characters used in Mickeys Magic Show inspired the talking heads at WDW. They work a simple as this. There are triggers in teh gloves. When the performers bend the fingers in towards there palms, its triggers the and mouth movements. Each movement is controlled by each hand. If you watch Dream Along with Mickey at MK, watch the hands, you can see them bend there fingers. So the heads are completly controlled by the performer inside.

Mickey's Magic Show is the second Feld Entertainment's Disney Live! production. Feld Entertainment, also the producer of Disney on Ice, High School Musical : The Ice Tour and the Ringling Bros circus, decided to produce this brand new show so the Disney magic could visit more cities.

The first show was Winnie the Pooh and the Perfect Day. Then came Mickey's Magic Show. This year's production is Playhouse Disney Live featuring Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, My friends Tigger and Pooh and Handy Manny. It's actually touring North America while Winnie the Pooh is in South America and Mickey's Magic Show in Asia.
