Are Shows Universal?

[MrRoamer]

I still thought the show was fun. Absolutely terrifying (you can find me hiding behind any object taking me out of direct line of sight)... but it looked like people enjoyed it and was good for a laugh.

Sorry this is my first post and I found this forum from the UO Passholders site. I've been lurking for a while now though.

One of the guys I went to high school with is one of the rotating members of this group. If you didn't know, they've been performing at Universal and Disney Springs. They'll be Disney exclusive from now on.

I enjoyed her version of Candyman.

Wait, is this a new show? Months ago we saw her singing in front of Macy's and as I recall, it wasn't very good...

I saw it a couple of weeks ago and it was in front of Macy's. Should be the same show.

Rumour mill: Miracle on 34th street show

Would this be just for the holidays?

Yes that is what I am hearing. Not sure I fully believe this one will actually occur (at least not until next year) but thought it was interesting and it would give the studios something to counter Grinchmas in IOA even if its just a street show.

I could see it as a small street show or maybe tree lighting type thing or something. I don't really see it as a counter to Grinchmas.

Just an update: NBCUniversal Stage Productions the live theatrical side of Universal is putting a lot of money down to produce shows and buy shows with three opening on Broadway this month being Hello dolly, War Paint, and the Doll House 2. While also trying to produce musicals for The Sting, Animal House, It's Kind of a Funny Story, Pitch Perfect, and a new musical version of Oliver Twist. And securing and buying up even more off broadway and regional shows. This helps suggest that with the purpose of synergy, we may see some sort of preview in the parks of these shows or one of these becoming an exclusive for the parks.

USH was rumored for a good period of time to have Pitch Perfect replace SES in the past. I think it's highly possible, that out of any of the show's they would bring, it'd be PP.

I think it depends on NBCUniversal's goal. They would want to put something at the theme park that will entertain guest but also provide things they can sell from T-shirts/costumes/funny mugs with quotes. Also the acapella musical just released on broadway flopped badly. Well they may be working to produce a show for Pitch Perfect, I think other shows may have a much stronger chance.
