Don't get too excited because Stitch is still going to hanging around, but in a smaller capacity. Less than 2 months after it first opened, Stitch’s Supersonic Celebration's will close June 27th... Now what are they going to do with the expensive stage they built in the middle of Tomorrowland?

I guess the people have voted with their feet. So the Mouse does listen.

Um, I am not a stich fan but you should know that according to Mouseplanet/Miceage/Jim Hill Media this could be a temporary shut down while they rewrite it and/or build shade for the people attending.
He is not completely gone yet. |

I don't think you'd work out. Mickey knows sentence structure and punctuation. _________________ [ |

That was what was being rumored a week or so ago (before Disney confirmed the closure). Since Disney announced the closure, most think that is is permament...
The only way it would reopen is if it was some what covered, little more free form (not needing to stand in line for an open air show), and CHANGE THE CHARACTER... Why not have the show rotate through Fab Four? Might be a little difficult with the voice work, but I'm sure they can figure something out... _________________ Up or Down North, South, East, or West An Adventurer's Life is Best! |

Dagaru is correct as always (?). Disney announced it will be permanent. Yay! |

Dang it..... So Stitch probably is coming back:
Stitch back in Magic Kingdom show for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party
A trusted source reports that Disney is reviving a Stitch show that will be presented this year during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at the Magic Kingdom. It's name: "A Totally Tomorrowland Christmas," but it will include the rascally character.
Expect it on the stage where Stitch was previously seen for the short-lived, much-panned Stitch's Supersonic Celebration.
A Disney official told me they have nothing to announce at this time.
Reasons to believe: You had to know that stage wasn't going to sit idle forever. But it has a distinct look that isn't going to work for just anything, say, princesses, for example.
On August 10, when I was at MK to collect my Fun Card, I wandered over to Tomorrowland to see how deserted it felt. Mainly, on this side of Tomorrowland I bumped into smokers. But look, scaffolding on the site of the late, not-so-great SuperSonic Celebration (above). How much distress could it have gone under? A clue is given.
I had already been wondering about Very Merry, especially Mickey's Twas the Night Before Christmas Show, which has been staged on the Galaxy Palace Theater. That was adjacent to Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin -- until the stage was demolished earlier this year.
But now I'm wondering about the interactive portions of the new show, if any. Very Merry is always after-hours, therefore after dark. Do they have the technology to project audience members onto the big screen? Or is that even planned. Not that they need to copy all the elements of the SuperSonic show. Santa, help us!
Very Merry runs for 19 select nights, beginning Nov. 19.
Sidenote: Disney officials confirm that the first night of the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights has been moved up to Nov. 10 at Disney's Hollywood Studios. It was originally on the calendar for Nov. 30. It will run through Jan. 4.

We could have a sit-in to protest it. And by sit-in I mean taking a tour of World Showcase. Or checking to see that the Tambu Lounge is still there. You never know. |
