Looks like DreamWorks' How To Train Your Dragon Live Spectacular now playing across the US.

That's a pretty good looking lizard.
I think it's GEICO's new talking
insurance selling lizard but has a
Yiddish accent instead of British
Yeah, it fits in so well at a circus? God help us all.
This is from the Dreamworks Show "How To Train Your Dragon " I have a good friend Lynda Lavin who is the Production Director on it.
Blue show opens in Dallas Aug 1, who has the herd there? I am sure Sonny is still around?
Jumpin' Joe Frisco.
The Blue show is in California. The Red Show is in Dallas, with Brian French/Cristiani.
Actually the Blue Show is in California. The Red Show is in Texas with Brian French/Cristiani in charge of elephants.
Ok, Dennis Thanks..I visited Joe and family there last year. Cant keep up with the units anymore. Red was always the GGW's show and the Blue the GSOE..at least the way it seemed back then? Red show got all new stuff all the time and Blue had leftover equipment..:(
Some of us called them Ringling &
Circus Williams Gary but the Blue
was truly the best for tradition
Wow that's Carin & Larry's little
kid all grown up
Just look at all the advantages to offering this type of attraction: no expensive feed bills, no vet bills, no need to hire experienced caregivers, no running afoul of state and Federal animal laws, no harassment from PETA. This is the future!
Have to wonder when they will come
out with Audioanimatronic elephants
but I'd guess just like computer
lighting stuff "wiggle lights" they
wouldn't handle the jostling of the
train so they would have to go by
the overland method
Disney's working on some free movement animatronics now (one in particular "roams" animal kingdom and interacts with the guests), so the elephants aren't far behind. Instead of handlers and caregivers, you end up with programmers and technicians. It might offset the cost of the food.....
