    Ever wonder what happened to your favorite performers at Disney live stageshows?
    An article in the paper today is interesting for many reasons.

    <a href="http://www.kansascity.com/2012/01/27/3393902/starlight-conjures-a-childrens.html#misearch" target="_blank">http://www.kansascity.com/2012...misearch</a>

    Apparently Mr.Jerry Jay Cranford loved being the Genie at DCA..."If they had allowed me to play until I'm 80, I would have"
    If you take the time to read the entire article...it is wonderful to know the arts community recognizes the importance of presenting a live theatrical performance for children and families.
    "This is not a money-making venture."
    This is mission based. This is audience development."
    Words of wisdom I hope Disney has not forgotten.
