Star Wars Added to Disneyland’s World of Color Show

Rides may be the biggest attraction of theme parks, but they’ve been known to put on some pretty spectacular shows. Stage performances, live musicals, and fireworks shows have all been part of Disney’s brand for years. But now that they’ve acquired new properties, many wondered how they’d incorporate them into their parks.

As for other Star Wars attractions, Disney has a few that are actually worth your time. First, there’s a one man show by Warwick Davis: “An Ewok’s Tale: My Short Story.” The voice of Obi-Wan in Clone Wars, James Arnold Taylor, has a show about voice acting. There also seems to be a live, on stage Star Wars Rebels show.
