At a media event this week, Disney has confirmed that an interim show, based on the Jungle Book, will debut at Animal Kingdom this summer before Rivers of Light. The show, entitled "Jungle Book: Alive with Magic", will open at the park on Memorial Day Weekend and will run for a limited time throughout Summer, before Rivers of Light actually debuts. The RoL show was due to open this week, but due to unforeseen technical issues, the show's opening has been delayed - with no new date announced.
“Jungle Book: Alive with Magic” Show – Discovery River will become the stage for a limited-engagement show inspired by Disney’s hit live-action film “The Jungle Book.” “Jungle Book: Alive with Magic” is filled with music and special effects that celebrates the new film and the classic songs, now infused with an Indian influence.
