Enchanted Tales with Belle

I don't want to spoil this for anyone who hasn't seen it yet. But I figured a short review was in order. Enchanted Tales with Belle is a new attraction at Walt Disney World's New Fantasyland. It is already really popular and I think it's a lot of fun.

The basic story is that you are going back in time to the night Belle and the Beast fell in love (you know the ballroom scene!) And on that night you (the audience) has to help Belle retell the story of her and the Beast up to that point so that way she will be ready for the big night. It's a loosely veiled excuse to get kids to put on a show.

It's actually really cute. Audience members are picked and each plays a part. Each show is really based on how energetic the participants are. And these are little kids so they can be shy.

The greatest features of the show are the animatronics and effects. The enchanted items in Enchanted Tales feels very real. Even I oohed and ahhhed at the points. You can see Lumiere and Madam Wardrobe in my pics and the enchanter mirror. Lumiere and Madam Wardrobe felt so alive. It was like being in the movie for a short moment.

I loved it and would love to see it again. Definitely worth a max of 40 minutes to wait for it.
