Creator's Key Takeaways
We're the technical direction team here in the Walt Disney Theater aboard the beautiful Disney Destiny and we're here to show you how we cram three Broadway style musicals into one Broadway style theater.
We have to Tetris everything into this space and make sure it all fits together.
We have one show on stage pretty much at all times and then we have a two, three hour window to swap that show for whatever's next in the itinerary.
We use every inch available to us to be able to store all of these small elements.
