ORLANDO, Fla. – Animal Actors On Location!, one of the remaining opening-day attractions at Universal Studios Florida, will have its final performances in November.<\/p>\n
Universal Orlando is closing another attraction.<\/p>\n
Animal Actors On Location, one of the last remaining opening day attractions at Universal Studios Florida, will close for good this fall.<\/p>\n
The show will have its last performances on Nov. 2, with the attraction permanently closed starting Nov. 3.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Universal said the attraction is closing to “make way for a new experience.”<\/p>\n
Universal’s long-running show <\/p>\n
The live show opened at the park on June 7, 1990, as Animal Actors Stage.<\/p>\n
That version of the show was replaced with Animal Planet Live, which ran from 2001 to 2006.<\/p>\n
In 2006, after the Animal Planet partnership ended, the show was changed to Animal Actors On Location.<\/p>\n
The show features trained cats, dogs and other animals performing in live skits and audience participation segments to demonstrate how animal actors are trained for film and TV projects.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“The show has been a part of Universal Studios Florida since the park’s opening, and we are grateful for the countless memorable moments it has provided our guests over the years,” Universal said in a statement.<\/p>\n
The other remaining opening day attractions are E.T. Adventure and the Horror Make-Up Show (which is temporarily closed for a major refresh).<\/p>\n
New attractions on the way <\/p>\n
Universal has not yet said what will replace Animal Actors On Location!<\/p>\n
The company said more details will be shared “at a later time.”<\/p>\n
The closure comes after Universal shuttered Fast & Furious – Supercharged<\/a> on Aug. 16.<\/p>\n Universal is building a Fast & Furious coaster at the former site of Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. It’s set to open in 2027.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Source: This article was written with information from a statement provided by Universal Orlando and from information gathered by Digital Content Producer Ashley Carter.\u00a0<\/p>\n Universal Studios Florida News<\/a>Orlando theme park news<\/a>Orlando News<\/a>Orange County News<\/a>Instastories<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"article The Universal Orlando globe in front of the entrance to Universal Studios Florida.
