I really hope we get a beetlejuice show.

Beetlejuice!

Beetlejuice!

Beetlejuice!

That makes it happen, right?

 

[Living Dead Dude]

So if we get a beetlejuice show does that mean no academy of villains?

God I hope so. No interest in seeing that show again. I'll probably just go on rides or veg out in a SZ instead of seeing that again.

 

[Wigglepebbles]

It's showtime!

Well Universal will try to keep the two show concept though, so the best bet is that they'd probably have AOV outdoors while Beetlejuice gets the FF stage, which honestly would be better, they serve fans both things that they can decide to go to.

Except they didn’t last year, and the website implies one show.

Well if this year AOV is being given a break, I welcome the Beetlejuice show to be the replacement.

Yep. Last year was disappointing from that aspect.

 

[HHNSK]

While I appreciate the talent of AOV I was not a fan of last year’s show. I just thought something was missing from HHN.

Having said that I would be really surprised if AOV isn’t back. There is only one slot. They had huge attendance numbers all through the event last year .... and it was very popular even if it wasn’t with some of the hard core / old school B&T crowd (me).

One thing that could be a factor is performer fatigue. I don’t know how well they are paid by Universal, but they have a gruelling two month schedule with a lot of shows. It may work really well for Universal, but does it work for AOV and their artists?

 

[SeventyOne]

It seems unlikely Universal could put on a show with Equity performers by Labor Day--even one with a pre-existing script--without having announced auditions by now. We've seen zero audition announcements, and probably more importantly, heard no leaks from the gossipy Orlando theater community. While I'd love to see a second show and love to see BJ return even more, I just don't see it being a logistic possibility.

How accurate do you guys think this map is?

100% basically.

 

[Living Dead Dude]

Chance of any announcement this week?

Wednesday puts us at 100 days which was my next guess that is absolute spec though.

 

[Wigglepebbles]

Think they'll save the next announcements when the new ticketing options are up, just like last year.

 

[Legacy]

There’s nothing on the list for this week, but they are behind that schedule. So, who knows?

 

[ChaseTuff]

Chance of any announcement this week?

Based on what Legacy showed of the "original" announcement schedule, I wouldn't say it's entirely out of the realm of possibility.

 

[Tobias]

Regarding a announcement this week, I kinda' doubt it since we do have a mondo media blitz on the way with G.E. opening in DL. But as it's been mentioned, HHN is behind schedule so who knows what they might do.

I'd say keep expectations low, chances are we'll be getting something next week when regular tickets go on sale.

 

[NuteGunrayWasFramed]

Bringing back to SZs real quick, people are saying that these are some of the weakest ideas since 2013...did those people forget that 2017 was a thing?

Beetlejuice would be awesome as a show, AOV would be fine too, but I’d like to see something different this year.
