Disney Parks Live Entertainment has posted a request for female auditions for the new show at Walt Disney World. The audition notice appears to be for the new UP themed show that is set to replace Flights of Wonder at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The final performance of Flights of Wonder is scheduled for December 31st, 2017 and the location will start to make the transformation for the new show. The new show is set to open in the spring of 2018, so it doesn’t appear that we have that long to wait.
