DCA's World of Color

Gemini Cricket · 05-05-2010, 01:42 PM

It struck me that basically the World of Color show at DCA is going to be Fantasy Waters 2.0. It sounds like there are no cast member performers in it. I wonder if it'll seem kind of bland because of the lack of human entertainers running around... This is a link to Al's article about the smaller than expected viewing capacity.

Anyone going to see it when it opens in about a month?

After experiencing crushing crowds during F! this year I don't have a huge pull to deal with the crowds that will be generated by WoC. My AP also expires in mid-June, so unless things change I won't be seeing it for quite some time.

Letting your Disneyland annual pass expire makes baby Jesus cry.

I knew there had to be an up side.

Like with all Disneyland Report projects there's going to be some problem with WoC. I wonder what it will be... It can't destroy the tracks of Space Mountain by being too heavy, it's not a giant yeti so it can't permanently be broken, it doesn't have to clear passageways on the monorail track, I don't think anything could suck as hard as Light Magic... well we'll have to see. I'm thinking the problem will be with the hydraulics that lift and lower all of the gadgetry in the lake. I predict it will break and they won't be able to fix it for months because they'll have to drain the water to do so. Or they'll run it without some of the promised special effects working properly.

The full cancellation of World of Color performances Wednesday night can't be blamed on the afternoon earthquake for certain. Multiple buoys that help raise the show platform up to the waterline sprung leaks and filled with water at some point before the platform was raised Wednesday evening. The middle and left platforms weren't aligned properly when the underwater scissor lifts were commanded to lock the platforms in place, with the middle platform suffering the most damage as the two massive structures were wedged into each other at an angle causing stressed structural beams and damaged fountains. A full team of divers, engineers, and outside contractors have been brought in to assess just how bad the damage is before the repairs can begin, or even what the repairs need to be, and there's no word yet how long all that may take. - Al Lutz

My pass is currently expired (waiting for WDW so I can get the dual one). I don't think I can deal with the disaster it will be for at least the summer. Unless there are some seating packages like with Fantasmic.
