Last Night at Pleasure Island

Members from MousePlanet were at the Adventurer’s Club for the last performance.  I’m a little sad that I could not be there.  From the very first time I went to Walt Disney World, Pleasure Island was a destination that I always looked forward to.  Really the only two clubs that I visited were the Adventurer’s Club and the Comedy Warehouse.

Here’s a link to the article - http://www.mouseplanet.com/articles.php?art=wd080930mg.

I started going to Walt Disney World when I first got my current job.  Every year there was a conference that I attended and it took place at the Yacht and Beach club. Almost every night that I could go to Pleasure Island, I made sure I went. For the first few years, I went alone and went to the Comedy Warehouse to see about 4 out of the 6 shows. Then I got married and dragged my wife to the shows.

In between the Comedy Warehouse shows, I would go to the Adventurer’s Club. As a professional improv comedian, I can’t get enough of good improv. Both clubs are great examples of excellence in improvisational comedy. The Comedy Warehouse was a prime example of how a small improv show should run. The Adventurer’s clubs is a great example of using improv to interactive one on one with an audience. They showed how to create a character and make that character live for a night.

More to come in future posts. Farewell to one of my favorite destinations at Walt Disney World.
