Re: Pixar Play! Parade coming to DCA in 2008
OK, the BPB cast was originally about 120 and was cut to around 80, that is a MAJOR reduction in the cast.
If the parade was as popular as some folks want you to think, Disney would find other things to cut back on.
Yes, Aladdin has had cuts, one cast now, instead of the original 2 teams that were needed for 7 days a week . Also, originally they paid better for the primary actors and were trying to get "known" folks, now the "stars" get paid less and are not Broadway actors. But then again, Aladdin is getting old and is not as popular as it was when it first opened.
And I am curious, who gets higher viewership, High School Musical 2, with its much smaller cast, or Block Party Bash? OK, HSM2 is new, but how were the crowds for the original HSM event at DCA, I would say about the same.
I am pretty sure that Disney is getting much more bang of its buck with HSM2.
