    Question Favorite Live Show at WDW?

    My wife and I have discussed before how our two favorite live shows at WDW are both in Animal Kingdom. I like Festival of the Lion King slightly better than Finding Nemo- the Musical, and she is undecided which one she likes better, but we both agree that they are our favorites. That gave me the idea for this topic. What is your favorite live show at WDW?
    I'm a dad! My daughter, Eisley, was born on December 17, 2010.

    Our favorite live musical show is also FoTLK at AK. We also enjoyed Beauty & the Beast at DHS.
    Flights of Wonder at AK is really funny, too.

    Actually, my favorite show attraction overall is Wishes, but that's not a singing and dancing show.

    I get chills every time during the finale of festival of the lion king. Nemo is very good and so is B&B at the DS. But my vote is lion king!

    I love B&B at DHS. It's Disney's best story for cartoons and it translates well onto the stage. And 4for a Dollar on the pre-show make it great. Flights of Wonder is close second.

    Fantasmic #1...and while this probably outisde the realm of what you were looking for, but #1b would actually be the high school bands that occasionally cruise around the lake at Epcot...the kids have an absolute blast and I enjoy watching them be part of the magic (even more so after DD did so earlier this year). I also enjoy Off Kilter's performance at Epcot.
    There's a great big beautiful tomorrow

    I would say the Lion KIng followed by Beauty & the Beast for the live show part. Then Fantasmic & Philharmagic is next for the non live shows.

    My first would be Fantasmic. Which I do consider a live show since they are all performing in it.

    My second would probably be FOTLK followed by the Nemo Musical.

    While everyone makes mention of some great shows, the one that still resonates with me is The Night Before Christmas Show performed at the MVMCP last year. I expected it to be ho hum but I was pleasantly surprised. As that was my first MVMCP, I am not sure if they do that show each year but I highly recommend it if they do and you are there.

    like Nemo, Lion King, but something about Little Mermaid in the dark that makes it better.

    I have not seen the Nemo show yet, but I love Festival of the Lion King. I like the WDW version better then the HKD version. Fantasmic would be my second choice.

    Flights of Wonder - It's the best kept secret in WDW! None of the yearly vistors I know ever check it out. I'm so glad we went the last time!!
