It looks like the people in the pictures were wearing rain ponchos, which makes sitting on grass sound a lot less fun though... I also wonder what all they are planning on using this venue for. It looks like it will work very well for almost any kind of musical act, but it may be pretty much limited to that. There doesn't seem to be any easy way to get sets or backdrops on the stage (the wings and area over the stage are solid), which pretty much rules out any sort of stage show. I'm not sure of the exact location, but it looks like it could work well for a semi-small scale production, perhaps for holidays or special promotions or something, if they could figure out a way to work with what they have. (To be fair, you could definately say the same thing about Tom Sawyer Island in DL, and that hosts one of the most extravagant shows in any theme park).
