Event Details

The most popular attractions at Disneyland and the other theme parks are greatly enhanced by the robotic animals and people who help to convey the story as guests pass.  The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room are some examples that use the technology called Audio-Animatronics.  The concept began earlier than many suppose and this presentation focuses on the evolution through the first fifteen years of Disneyland (1955-1970). Presented by James Keeline, Historian & Author.
