The show featured 13 effects projectors, 11 searchlights, 12 wire-mesh grids, 180 water nozzles, 550 theatrical lights, and 783 pyrotechnics. The first two acts relied heavily on fountains, lighting, lasers, and projections, with the fireworks not really coming until the end of the second act. The music in the third act, like the first, was entirely orchestral recordings of the previous synthesizer score. It began with Orphée aux Enfers, Galop Infernal (France), then in order Days of Emancipation (China), Rule Britannia (United Kingdom), Tales of the Vienna Woods (Germany), Sakura (Japan), España Cani (Mexico), French Canadian Jig Traditional (Canada), Funiculì, Funiculà (Italy) and Rhapsody in Blue (United States).
The second act score was entirely different, now focusing on the original World Showcase pavilions in turn. Much of the music in the first act were the same pieces, with the section from Piano Concerto No.

Unlike its predecessors, a full orchestra was used to play the classical pieces. IllumiNations replaced Laserphonic Fantasy as the nighttime show on January 30.

When you board Maelstrom, you are joining a Viking boat cruise. Guests could also meet Mickey at his Hollywood Theater in his backstage dressing room. One of the few rides in Epcots World Showcase, Maelstrom is located in the Norway pavilion. Here, guests would sit through a preshow of character clips before entering the theater to watch “Minnie’s Surprise Party.” This musical comedy would take place in Minnie’s Kitchen as the classic characters prepare Mickey’s party by baking a cake and rehearsing the new song “We Love You Mickey Mouse.” After Mickey shows up, guests move to the Party Tent decorated with party decorations and wood flat characters where the characters would dance on a birthday cake stage. Guests would tour Mickey’s House and exit out the back into the Birthday Party Tent. Donald Duck, and of course Mickey’s House, the only one that was a building. The land itself was designed around facades of Duckburg including both McDuck’s Mansion and McDuck’s Bank, Daisy’s Cafe, Duck County School, Goofy’s Clip Joint Barber Shop, the S.S. The park received its first-ever new land in Mickey’s Birthdayland on June 18th. The celebrations for Mickey’s 60th Birthday dominated the Magic Kingdom in 1988.
Boats begin to travel backward.)īefore recorded time, Norway’s spirit roamed the seas of the far north and beyond.An aerial view of Mickey’s Birthdayland highlights the presence of the “temporary” tent structures. There are those who see Norway’s spirit veiled in a land of forests and mystery-where trolls still prowl the water’s edge.
(Boats pass a family speaking Norwegian and a viking blowing a horn.)
Long ago, Norway was a land of vikings. That was the beginning of our love for the sea. We have always lived with the sea, so look first to the spirit of the seafarer. Those who seek the spirit of Norway face peril and adventure-but more often, find beauty and charm.
