I think one more theater should be built nothing large but a small theater for another indoor show. I think Carowinds is the only park I've been to with just one show theater.

Maybe in the future they can make a big building with lots of food . . . ouuuh! Call me crazy, but it would be really cool if they also put a stage in it . . . i think country music would really go well in it. Sigh, a guy can dream.

Yea I didn't say a cafeteria with a stage in it, which is all great and cute. I said theater. Yea Kings Island have such as well with at least two other theaters in the park. I think one is called the showplace theater and the other is kings island theater.

Showplace Theater is similar to Peanuts Theater at Carowinds except next to Diamondback. Kings Island Theater is like Carowinds Theater and Festhaus is like Harmony Hall. Kings Isnland turned one theater into a petting zoo.

Was at the park for a few hours today. Front on Fury is fantastic and the back is even better. Though the rattle was noticeable in the back, I didn't think it was as bad as everyone makes it out to be.

Also dispatches on Ricochet were the best I've ever seen. The time it took from entering the queue to reaching the top of the lift hill was maybe 45 seconds.

EDIT:

Saw this while in the drop off lot. Can't remember if anyone has brought this up before or not. Anyone know what it is?

Excavator and a motor grader.....
I didn't see those but there again, I wasn't looking yesterday. Plants Vs. Zombies was so fun, I rode it twice. I was glad to see the Thunder Road memorial signs still up, I also found White Lightnin' pins while I was shopping for Thunder Road merch yesterday.

Speaking of shows. Do people really come for shows? I mean magic kingdom doesn't really have shows and thats the most visited park in the world.

Dollywood would like a word with you.

I watch the show Carowinds did at opening time yesterday morning in the plaza, the dresses were nice but the songs were just ok parodies.

Is this part of the new road behind Hurler they are working on?

Now, there I would have to disagree with you. For indoor shows that I remember, you have the Country Bear Jamboree, The Hall of Presidents, Mickey's PhilharMagic, The Carousel of Progress, and Monster's Inc Laugh Floor. Right there, that's 5 theaters where you can beat the heat and relax. There's probably some I've left out.

Don't forget that some of the most popular Disney shows are outside. There are several just on main street, the main street parades, the electrical show over the lake, and my favorite, the Nightly Main Street Electrical Parade.

Disney probably has more than a dozen different shows you can go see just at Magic Kingdom. So, YEAH, people definitely go to Magic Kingdom for shows. For the purpose of this discussion, at least 5 fall into the category of a sit down theater experience and I listed those above. Carowinds can at least have 2.

Most likely, not really sure though. Can't be anything related to park expansion because of how far away it is.

I thought it was understood we were talking about live, music shows in theaters. I wouldnt consider any of those shows at magic kingdom. More so attractions. Hence why I said doesn't really have shows vs has no shows.

[uscbandfan]

They have live music at Harmony Hall.

I'm just talking sit-down theater style get-out-of-the-heat entertainment. (Cirque Imagine isn't a music show. It's acrobatics and that's what's in the Carowinds theater now which is a perfectly fine show by me.)

[pproteinc]

It seemed like there were a lot of foreign employees at the park today. Did Carowinds start a program recently?:

I was there yesterday as well and noticed this. I didn't understand not one word the ops were saying.

I think it might be that "work camp" Amos talked about in his videos. So I would assume they're staying for the summer at Camp Wilderness.
