NEW YORK (AP) –
Disney World
is about to get a little pitchy, dawg.

Walt Disney Parks and Resorts announced plans Thursday to create a live
performance attraction based on “American Idol” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
theme park — formerly called Disney-MGM Studios — in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

“Our goal is to try to recreate the excitement of those 24 people who show up on
that ‘American Idol’ stage,” Disney Parks chairman Jay Rasulo told The
Associated Press. “We believe many, many viewers want to know exactly how that
feels, and we’re going to try to reproduce that feeling for them.”

Much like the hugely popular Fox singing competition, the as-yet-unnamed
attraction — scheduled to open in late 2008 — will allow theme park guests to
audition then perform before a live studio audience inside the Hollywood
Studios’ theater space formerly occupied by the “Doug Live!” and “Superstar
Television” attractions.

Disney licensed the rights to create the attraction from “Idol” co-producers 19
Entertainment and Fremantle Media, despite the fact “American Idol” airs on Fox
and Disney owns broadcast competitor ABC.

“It is owned by us, so we can extend the brand in the off-air space in the ways
that we want to,” said Keith Hindle, Fremantle Media’s licensing vice president.
“We don’t see this in any way as a NewsCorp. vs. Disney debate. That’s never
been part of the discussion, and it’s not something that’s relevant to us. It’s
just part of ‘American Idol.”‘

The attraction’s details are still being worked out, but it will probably
operate something like this: Theme park guests ages 14 and up will be able to
audition for a Disney casting producer. Those who pass the test will be selected
to appear in one of the park’s “Idol” stage shows. Rasulo anticipates six to
eight such shows a day.

Backstage, the performers will receive hair and makeup touchups from a stylist
and singing tips from a vocal coach. Then, the guests will perform on an
“Idol”-like set in front of a live audience and three judges.

Top audience vote-getters will compete in a grand finale show at the end of each
day. Overall daily champs will win a special front-of-the-line pass at a
regional audition for the actual

“American Idol” show. Hindle says Disney winners won’t be given any special
treatment during the real audition, just the ability to skip ahead.

Because of eligibility differences — namely, the TV show’s 16- to 28-year-old
age limit — winners may be offered the option of transferring their pass to a
friend or family member, but they won’t be allowed to sell it. Daily champs too
young to audition for the real deal could save the pass until they’re old enough
to compete, according to Hindle.

But will there be enough Fantasias and Sanyayas to keep theme park audiences
captivated?

“I know that there’s enough talent on any given day in our theme parks to keep
people entertained,” said Rasulo.

Beyond the attraction, Hindle says actual “Idol” stars may make appearances
throughout the year and merchandise designed by both FremantleMedia and Disney’s
product divisions especially for the attraction would be available for sale.

“It’s a very collaborative process,” Hindle said. “Disney knows more about live
stage productions that we ever will. We know more about our TV show that Disney
ever will. Exactly how this will manifest it is something that will be mutually
approved by all parties. We’re looking to Disney to see how their guests like to
be entertained.”

Orlando, FL: This Land is Your Land-o
From rollercoaster forest to gulf-stream waterslide, Orlando was made for you and me. Come live out your food fantasies, and indulge your sense of wonder in the theme park capital of the world.

Dress code: If you’re pounding park pavement, wear breathable clothing, comfortable shoes, sunglasses, and sunscreen (Mickey Mouse ears, optional). And don’t forget an umbrella for those sudden tropical downpours.

One phrase worth knowing: Fastpass! With one of these in hand, skipping the lines at top attractions is not only on the up-and-up, but encouraged. It’s a ticketed reservation system that sets up a prearranged time to come back to the ride of your choice without a wait–for no extra charge.

Where to get your adrenaline rush: At Disney-MGM Studios, Lights, Motors, Action! is an extreme stunt show on hand for the 50th Anniversary celebration. Cars, motorcycles, and jet skies burn rubber and give a movie-worthy performance right before your eyes, complete with eye-popping pyrotechnics and hair-raising high-speed chase scenes.

Where to recuperate afterwards: Get the signature treatment–beguilingly called Mystical Forest Therapies–at the spa at Saratoga Springs Resort, which includes 30 minutes of muscle-numbing Swedish massage combined with 30 minutes of relaxing reflexology.

Where to blow a paycheck: While the admission price to Discovery Cove is steep, it’s worth it to spend a day getting up close and personal with marine creatures like dolphins and a stunning variety of rainbow-colored fish with no crowds, no lines, and no hassles.

Best place to end dinner with a bang: Walk out onto the outdoor terrace or stay put at the table when they dim the lights at the California Grill. The views of the nightly fireworks over the Magic Kingdom castle provide a “happily ever after” ending to an inspired meal at this hip restaurant that’s known for its great wine list.

You can take it with you: For kids (or precocious adults, for that matter) who want to bring home the magic, you can purchase exact replicas of Cinderella’s dress, tricked-out pirate costumes, trading pins, and innovative toys galore at the Marketplace in Downtown Disney.
