Mickey Mouse Revue

Nestled among the trees in the enchanted woods of Mythical Dreams, lies a Circus Tent that seems to be itself here by magic. Out of place yet perfectly fitting in its surroundings not unlike the Doctor's TARDIS or the Muppets in interviews. Logically a circus tent should not be here, and yet there is one and it just feels right.
Inside guests will find a lobby that serves as a mini-museum on the history of one of Disney's most interesting animatronic shows: Mickey Mouse Revue. With displays, miniatures, and plaques detailing its origins in Florida, how the whole show was moved to the other side of the globe to Tokyo, and how some animatronics from it made their way back to Florida and are still in use to this day in EPCOT's Three Caballeros boat ride!
The museum also features the disclaimer that Mickey Mouse Revue is being presented here as not just a show, but as a museum display and as such it features some elements that might not reflect the company's current values. (The use of Brer characters, the use of Zip-a-dee-doo-dah in the soundtrack, and the use of recreations of real guns instead of clear toy guns by Panchito)
When the doors to the theater open, guests are then free to stop reading about the historic attraction and witness it themselves! With the original show recreated here with only minor changes. The biggest difference between the original and this will be the use of retired Splash Mountain animatronics for the Brer characters rather than recreations.
