Last week, I took you beyond the curtain to reveal how Disney Cruise Line Entertainment dreams up magical shows at sea. While these elaborate productions take place on the high seas, they are actually rehearsed at our rehearsal facility on land. The cast of “Beauty and the Beast” rehearsed there this summer, getting ready for the brand-new musical’s debut on the Disney Dream in November. The show expands upon the most imaginative elements of the live-action and classic films and brings the timeless fable to life like never before, featuring a style of theater that interlaces classic storytelling elements with cutting-edge technology. This full-scale production includes 11 musical numbers and 25 performers who have put in approximately 176 rehearsal hours. Our rehearsal space is an impressive, state-of-the-art facility. Spanning more than 20,000 square feet in size, it houses 11 studios and rehearsal rooms, two of which are comparable in size to the Walt Disney Theatre. These studios and rehearsal rooms are not only where the cast learn their blocking and perfect their vocals but also where they bond with one another, going from cast to family in a matter of months. During these few months, the cast learn each and every one of their roles in all of the stage productions and deck parties presented aboard the ship. Each cast ranges in size from 32 to 46 talented individuals, recruited from around the world. The performers are a multi-faceted group, mastering singing, dancing, puppetry, acrobatics and even aerial stunts flying high above the stage! What comes next? Stay tuned, as the cast pack their bags and set sail to rehearse on the high seas in preparation for premiering the show in the Walt Disney Theatre. View the full article

Oh. You thought we were done trying ALL the Pumpkin Spice around Disney World? Learn About: Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory Disney World Restaurants Nope, not yet! We’ve tracked down everything from Pumpkin Spice Shakes (made with ice cream or gelato) to the annual return of Pumpkin Fudge around the parks. But I may have found my very favorite Pumpkin Spice snack yet at Sassagoula Floatworks & Food Factory in Port Orleans — French Quarter Resort, where they’re serving up PUMPKIN SPICE BEIGNETS. WOOT!!! Now, you won’t find Pumpkin Spice Beignets listed as an option on the menu alongside the regular French Quarter Beignets. French Quarter Beignets And the traditional (non-Spiced) Beignets are still available as well. Bakery Counter Menu Instead, there is a small sign posted atop the food court’s popular Bakery counter. It’s super easy to miss, which is why we had to let you know about it here! Halloween Specials sign Now, it’s all in the Pumpkin SPICE name with these. The beignets themselves are the regular variety — no pumpkin puree added to the dough or anything. Pumpkin Spice Beignets It’s basically just an additional dusting of the associated pumpkin spices on top of the standard powdered sugar. Simple enough, but the fragrance upon opening the warm box of beignets is heavenly. Pumpkin Spice Beignets Now, typically — to me, anyway — pumpkin spice is pumpkin spice: the usual blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove. But both my friend and I actually picked up on a LOT of clove, delivering its more pungent fragrance and flavor to the mix. Pumpkin Spice Beignets We didn’t want to let any of the delicious leftover pumpkin spice sugar go to waste once we’d polished off the Beignets, so what else was there to do but to sprinkle it on (what was left of) our other dessert to make… “Pumpkin Spice” King Cake Pumpkin Spice Mardi Gras King Cake! Spiced Sugar on King Cake It was that, or straight up eat the pumpkin spice sugar with a spoon… which we may or may not have done as well . So, get your Pumpkin Spice Beignets while the gettin’s good (through Halloween!). See you in the line! Would you like to try Pumpkin Spice on your Beignets? Please let us know with a comment!

I’m not a big fan of things ghoulish but something about the Haunted Mansion mesmerizes me. It might be the cast members’ accents with their elongated vowels. Maybe it is the “stretching” room with its hilariously scary portraits. Or, my favorite, the dancing ghosts in the dining room. Our designer, Christine Lee, who recently visited her very first haunted house, agrees with me. When we asked her to create something special for Halloween she naturally wanted to feature the “999 happy haunts.” Take a close look at the gravestones to see if you recognize a familiar mark!

Have you visited Cars Land at Disney California Adventure park since the Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort kicked off? I went for an after-hours stroll through the area a few nights ago and the place is absolutely spook-tacular. The “Cars” characters have transformed Radiator Springs into their own Haul-O-Ween celebration – decorating their establishments for the season and, oh man, the vehicular puns abound. The details seriously fill this bad-pun-loving ex-Jungle Cruise skipper’s heart with joy. Radiator Springs Curios and Flo’s V-8 Café are my favorite spots for photography. The zombie car at Radiator Springs Curios is really fun. Pro tip/spoiler alert: wait around for the zombie car to become possessed – once every 4-6 minutes – it’s pretty neat. Here are some more pictures of Radiator Springs from my walk in the park. Cruise on down to Cars Land and experience Haul-O-Ween for yourself, but hurry because the party ends October 31.
