Magic Kingdom: Updated Frontierland Hoedown, Cinderella Castle – Wilderness Lodge, Downtown Disney – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We stopped by the Magic Kingdom yesterday to see the updated Frontierland Hoedown. There have been many incarnations of the show near the Country Bear Jamboree, this one started a few weeks back. Before the show, the characters met briefly with guests. Liverlips McGrowl stopped by a merchandise stand (below, right). The characters perform with dancers to a variety of songs, including “The Hokey Pokey”. Guests are also brought into the action.

Brer Bear (below, left) and Brer Rabbit (below, right) do their best dance moves. If you look carefully, all the dancers are dressed in costumes from the various shops and attractions around Frontierland. The gimmick is that the cast members seem to spontaneously start a Hoedown in the middle of the street giving the guests the feeling of a special “happening“.

The guests seem to really enjoy the interaction and music! Big Al waves with Big Thunder Mountain in the background (below, left) and Brer Bear hugs a young guest (below, right).

Bonus Video – Frontierland Hoedown, Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom 3/17/2010 – This is the new/updated Hoedown at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom!

The moat is still drained at Cinderella Castle (below, left) and you can see the difference between the new “bricks” and the old – the new ones have more texture.

Another look at the bricks – old (below, left) and new (below, right).

At the Wilderness Lodge, there is construction at the pool and the slide is closed – the rest of the pool remains open (below left and right).

At the Downtown Disney Marketplace, the walkway is coming along nicely (below left and right).

Be sure and check out my first new DVD release of 2010, Jeff Lange Remembers: Disneyland’s Light Magic (Includes: One Man’s Dream Show) featuring the often requested “Light Magic” (1997) and the rarely seen on video “One Man’s Dream” stage show (1990)!

Available Now – Latest Release:

Jeff Lange Remembers: Disneyland’s Light Magic (Includes: One Man’s Dream Show)

Jeff Lange brings you vintage footage from two completely different but unique elements of Disneyland history!

Light Magic replaced the popular Main Street Electrical Parade, but ended after only 4 months in 1997. Two different vantage points – from the Small World mall and Main Street USA – give you a complete look at Light Magic!

One Man’s Dream was a beloved stage show that also ran for 4 months in 1990 before making way for Dick Tracy’s Diamond Double Cross. Performed at the Videopolis theater, this show celebrated the remarkable imagination of Walt Disney. This is a show not to be missed!
