hey gang,

I spoke with on of my buddys at Disney on the phone over the weekend. We talked about the new expedition eversest ride and among other things, and I brought up the Muppet aduitions that Disney held in NYC, LA and that I havn't heard much on it since then and he sayed Disney (along with MCH) desided NOT to go forward with it. so yeah...for all of you who where agenst it... yes its OFFICIALY over, Disney is not having 5 kermits, 3 Piggys, 14, Gonzo's and so on.

So I thought i'd pass this news on.

now we can lay this to rest! :wink:

The next round of auditions have been announced for a select handful in March and those going have already been notified by phone. Disney is flying those selected to DisneyWorld for a week long Muppet workshop and training.

Good luck to those handful, which might become the Muppet stars of tomorrow.

This is mostly true. However I recieved word last night that not everyone has been contacted yet, and will be in the next couple of weeks. Kind of running things tight...

I'm closing this thread due to the false information in it.
