Missed an instrumental band to accompany at least one of the shows (well, one guy playing the guitar in The Country line or the clown band short come back was nice). Endless Summer on Ice was nice for a few seasons, but would like to see a new instrumental / variety type of show return with the set changes, cool costumes, cool lighting effects/fog, and put to good use the cool sound system in the Kings Island Theater.

I personally would like to see a short reenactment of Singin In The Rain (the 1952 movie).

It's a musical, comedy, and romance mixed into one, and above all it's family friendly.

Celebration had a portion of the show dedicated to "Singing in The Rain."

Do you happen to have any footage of that show crammed away in your closet or something? I always hear how great it was but haven't ever seen footage of it.

The possibilities are absolutely endless at the Kings Island Theater. You are right about Endless Summer, though... it was great for two seasons, but it's time for something new. BTW, the guy in County Line isn't really playing. It's just a prop. Don't tell anyone I told you!!! :rolleyes:

Oh yeah... my vote goes for another show like School of Rock. LOVED that show. I'd like to see something like that with a storyline rather than just having a concert though.

It certainly would be nice to restore the entertainement in this facility like it used to be, and to have an in house production with a live band. I think the ice shows have their place at Cedar Point (where the facility was huge andcan not be used for much more since it used to be an IMAX). The King's Island Theater (which was built as the American Heritgage Music Hall) was built for live shows, and even had the sound system upgraded to support such entertainment. It will be interesting to see if an in house production does indeed replace the ice show next season. Hopefully the summer did end for the ice show.

I really enjoyed the in-house live productions in the Kings Island Theater and hope they can make a comeback soon enough! It would also be nice to have a smaller show in there for the Halloween season, like Wake the Dead! at Carowinds, Cedar Point, and now Great America as well. 

The venue itself is really nice, which is why I'm surprised it doesn't see more use. Kings Island could use more shows that last the entire season, and this is the place to have them. I had an idea that they could put on a show, called Coney Celebrations, that would celebrate the history of the now-closed Coney Island in Cincinnati. It could be a simple show or something more complex, but as a historical show half of the work is already done, Whoever puts it together would just need to figure out what parts to include and how to make it flow.
