This is a DVD retrospective of the one the
only..the ORIGINAL Disneyland, right here in California, here is what was going
on entertainment-wise during the 1986 summer season:
We all grew up with the MAIN ST ELECTRICAL PARADE, and many of us sat on Main
St USA and did the "special clap" and actually believed it was US shutting off
the lights as the announcement told us.
As truly amazing as this was, and memorable
perhaps a more faded memory is that of 2 PARADE FLOATS that didn't last long
at all - one was the float of RETURN TO OZ and the whimsical SMALL WORLD
float - BOTH which caught fire and were never replaced.
This version of THE MAIN STREET ELECTRICAL
PARADE brings to life the original moments with the Blue Fairy, Cinderella,
Alice in Wonderland, King Lion from Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Peter Pan, and
many others..along with the
gone forever SMALL WORLD float(burned in a
fire)! This float is right before the To Honor America and the ELP's grand
Finale!
See The Main Street Electrical Parade where
it originated and where you first saw this magnificent light parade.
Come celebrate this seasonal icon of
Disneyland and all the magic that kept us entertained in 1986!
