Have you head this? The Sun-Sentinel is reporting that Walt Disney Parks and Resorts and the "American Idol" have teemed up for a new show. "A.I." show's producers announced the deal Thursday.
Disney is creating create a theme park version of the mega hit TV show in an old, vacant soundstage theater in Disney's Hollywood Studios. It should open late this year.
Disney Hollywood Park visitors will be able to audition for the show at various locations at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
Those who pass the auditions will be given tips, vocal coaching, and hair and makeup touch ups.
They then will perform and compete in front of studio audiences in the renovated American Idol soundstage. (This will be in vacant Superstar Television venue, which is right next door to Sounds Dangerous.)
There will be several preliminary round shows during the day that will culminate in a "finals" show in the evening.
The daily winners will be offered guaranteed spots in regional auditions for the TV show.

I wonder if enough park guests will stick around to view the show? I am a "A.I." fan, but I know if I am visiting Disney & I see a show, I may have timing-issues that prevent me from seeing the show again.
What do you all think?

I had read an article that Millionaire TV show's decline started the attraction's number's to decline, right after opening, they spent a bit of money so they did not want to shut it down. If I find this I will post the link.
I agree I would not stay to see finals, espically if later in day.
