In-Depth Information
the Muppet Theater could be used to promote upcoming Walt Disney Pictures'
releases such as
Frankenweenie, Oz The Great and Powerful,
and
The Lone
Ranger.
So it should probably not surprise you to hear that the Imagineers are
now considering cutting Kermit & Co.'s run at this theater short to make room
for a new
Monsters, Inc.
-themed coaster. But Miss Piggy fans shouldn't des-
pair. You see, Disney Theatrical (the division of the Mouse House that creates
all of Disney's long-running productions for the stage) recently held a work-
shop for a live stage production modeled on the old
Muppets
TV show. And
if all goes according to plan, it could be “time to make the music” as early as
Broadway's 2015-2016 season.

tired and hot, this show will make you feel brand-new. Arrive early to catch the subvers-

TOURING TIPS
Although popular, this attraction handles crowds exceedingly well. Your wait
should not last longer than 20 minutes except on days when the park is jam-packed. Spe-
cial effects and loud noises may frighten some preschoolers.
Lately, the Muppets have frequently been preempted in favor of 4-D feature film pre-
views promoting Disney's latest potential franchise, such as
Frankenweenie
and
Oz: The
Great andPowerful.
