If you are a fan of The Muppets you have a new reason to get excited about your next Walt Disney World Vacation! A new LIVE stage show is being planned in Liberty Square. As Sam the Eagle would put it, "A Salute to All the Nations of the World, but Mostly America". Joining Sam the Eagle will be all of your favorite character including Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo and James Jefferson (the Town Crier of Liberty Square). This all new show will debut in the fall of 2016!
More Muppet news coming out of the parks recently is the announcement of Pizza Rizzo at Disney's Hollywood Studios! Pizza Rizzo will be opening in the former Pizza Planet location in and near the "Muppets Courtyard" next to Muppet Vision 3D. The menu is described as casual Italian-American and will feature indoor and outdoor seating options with nods to Rizzo's family and friends who have visited the restaurant over the years. No word yet if Pizza Planet will be relocated inside the new Toy Story Land but we can assume they wouldn't have 2 pizza places in the same park... Right?
