3/31/2025
Disney fans rejoice! Today on the show we’re discussing the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue dinner show at Walt Disney World, which I revisited on a recent Disney vacation with my family. The Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is most likely something you’re very familiar with or have never even heard of. It’s a bit of a weird phenomenon where this live dinner show that’s been running for over fifty years at Fort Wilderness isn’t known by a lot of Disney fans. This slice of Americana, old-fashioned family fun, and heaping helpings of barbecue and comfort food combines music, dancing, vaudeville style comedy, and audience interaction. Joining me to discuss is my college pal Frances who had the honor of portraying the role of Flora Long, one of the show's six ensemble characters. Whether you’re someone who has personally enjoyed the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue yourself, or perhaps you have no idea what it is, you’re sure to enjoy this story of its origins while taking a peek behind the curtain of a tradition steeped in Walt Disney World history.

Like all Disney fans, we have preconceived notions of what our experiences will be when visiting a Disney park for the first time. Listen to hear how it lived up to Robert’s expectations as we discuss how to get to the resort, the later than expected opening time, how characters seem to be more popular than rides based on wait times, the shopping & food, why Hong Kong's Jungle Cruise is his favorite, the wow-factor of Mystic Manor, and what Robert thought of the park’s newest land, World of Frozen. Whether you’re thinking about visiting Hong Kong Disneyland yourself or simply living vicariously through Robert’s journey, enjoy our conversation all about Hong Kong Disneyland. ------ GIVEAWAYS, BONUSES AND SUPPORT: Gain early access to episodes, take part in Ask Me Anything live streams, and gain more bonuses by joining the DCTC Patreon.
