 Tarzan Tour
Tarzan is starting a tour that begins in Atlanta in January 2009. As of now, they have booked 10 stops. Disney said that they are "revamping" it, so it will be interesting to see a show that didn't do well on Broadway, becoming a revamped tour.

Interesting as in, "Oh, look at that all-green set!"
Or interesting as in, "It still sucks."

Or a Europe tour. Tarzan has opened 2 European productions, in Sweden and Holland, within the last year and a production is scheduled for Germany in October.
I meant interesting, as in "Wow. A show that sucked badly is getting revamped. I wonder if they'll clean it up a bit". That kind of interesting.

I can't imagine why people would watch this tour. The premise is based on one of the most boring Disney movies ever.

Oh yeah I heard about this. Should I even attempt to get tickets? If I go it'll just be to quench my Disney thirst (weird metaphor).

 Tarzan
Hardly. It may not be top-tier Disney and it may be flawed, but it isn't at the bottom of the barrel either.
Later days

It won't even quench your Disney thirst. It's not very Disney-ish at all.

Yeah... it doesn't have the magic that Disney should have.
Although, the score is very Disney and is the only good thing about the show IMO.

Yeah I have a couple of the songs on my iPod and I really like them, but once I saw a bootleg of the spider scene...
Wow. Let's just say I would be laughing at an inappropriate moment were I in the audience.
