==Attraction History== ===Creation for Disneyland=== The genesis of what would one day become Walt Disney's Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room is musical revue began in 1950s with a Polynesian theme Walt Disney himself. At the time, Walt and is set his Imagineers had been working on a way to animate three dimensional figures for use in Disneyland. So far they had found minimal success however, as the mystical “Enchanted Tiki Roomtechnology that they developed (Audio Animatronics) was still very crude and unreliable.” The attraction originally opened with Although they had been able to animate some of the animals found on Disneyland’s [[Magic KingdomJungle Cruise]] , attempts at more complex Animatronics had proven unsuccessful. Things began to change however, when while on vacation in 1971 New Orleans, Walt came upon and is located in Adventureland within the Sunshine Pavillionbought a mechanical toy bird that could sing (as well as move its beak and wings) <ref name= "org"> http://www. Originally named the Tropical Serenade, the waltdisney.org/blog/disneyland-classics-walt-disneys-enchanted-tiki-room </ref>.[[Image:Walttiki.jpg|thumb|400px|Walt Disney World version of the show was a carbon copy of the in Disneyland attraction: The 's Enchanted Tiki Room]]. The show is hosed Inspired by four macaws – Josethe technology used within the toy, FritzWalt decided that if toy makers could animate 3D objects, Pierre his Imagineers could too. After dissecting the bird and Michael who lead over 200 birdsunderstanding the technology that made it work, flowers Disney Imagineers were able to produce fluid, Audio Animatronic tropical birds (including toucans and Tikis in musical numbersmacaws) <ref name="D23">https://d23.com/tiki-room-50th-anniversary-archives/ </ref>.

The Tropical Serenade operated from 1971 until 1997 when the In order to turn this new Tiki attraction was re-themed and given the into a reality, Walt turned to his Imagineers. Although Walt had originally told him, “This show doesn’t have to be a natural history museum. Let’s have some fun!” <ref name The = "D23"/> Imagineer Rolly Crump's designs were deemed to be a bit too abstract. Disney then turned to sculptor Blaine Gibson to create the residents of the Enchanted Tiki Room (Under New Management). The new show featured Zazu from DisneyAlthough much more realistic then Crump's The Lion King and Iago from Disney's Aladdindesigns, Gibson still did not create an "absolutely realistic parrot" in order to give the hosts some character <ref name= "D23"/>. The change Assisting Gibson in creating characters was Imagineer Marc Davis who designed the totems who come to life inside the attraction was done , as well as some of the singing flowers and birds <ref name= "D23"/>. When it came to give creating the show a more modern feelbirds themselves, Imagineer Harriet Burns was charged with designing and creating the feathering, which she often did using real feathers. Besides just When describing his vision for the addition of new charactersbirds, new songs were added Walt told Burns, "I want these birds to make the show more “hip”be so real you can see them breathe. " <ref name= "D23"/>

In 2011 a small fire broke out in Although the Sherman Brother's song set the stage for the rest of the attraction, The Enchanted Tiki Room (Under New Management)'s script was written by Larry Clemmons, Marty Sklar, Wally Boag, and Fulton Burley <ref name= "magic"> http://www.

The show was then changed back to the original Fritz, Michael and Pierre (albeit with some minor changes) voiced respectively by Wally Boag, Fulton Burley, Thrul Ravenscroft, and was renamed Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room. Ernie Newton <ref name==The Tropical Serenade==The Tropical Serenade operated from 1971 until 1997 in the Sunshine Pavilion"magic"/> . ===Tropical Serenade Plot===

The Tropical Serenade really began in the pre-show. Outside of the Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room was Clyde and Claude who told the audience how they found the Enchanted Tiki Room. They would then precede finally opened to tell guests about on June 23, 1963. In total the show and try to get them to enter the Tiki Roomattraction featured a stunning 225 Audio Animatronic characters performing a 17 minute tropical revue.

Once inside, guests would find that ===Walt Disney World===Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room birds were asleep! A cast member would have proved to wake up Jose (either by hitting him with be a stick, or having the audience wake him up) who would then wake his co-hosts Pierresmash hit for Disneyland, Fritz and Michaelthus it was an obvious choice for inclusion in Walt Disney World. One In the four hosts were up it Magic Kingdom, the Enchanted Tiki Room was time to “wake up renamed "Tropical Serenade" and housed inside the glee club”. The birds would then sing Sunshine Pavilion sponsored by the attractions official song “Citrus Florida Growers <ref name= "dated"> http://waltdatedworld.com/id47.htm </ref>.

The song welcomed guests to Opening with the Tiki Room and gave them a picture rest of what the park on October 1, 1971, Tropical Serenade was in store. According to essentially a carbon copy of the song Disneyland show. With that being said, there were major differences in the Tiki Room the “Birds sing words, queue and attraction building. For starters, Tropical Serenade featured three separate covered lines, giving the flowers croon”queue more order then its Disneyland counterpart. Various Furthermore, while Disneyland's preshow centered on Tiki god statues, the Tropical Serenade preshow focused on two birds from around named Clyde and Claude having a conversation with each other<ref name= "dated"/>.

Due to the attractions waning popularity, Disney decided they needed to seriously update the birds would begin show. In order to whistle "Barcarolle” do this, Imagineers added the popular characters Zazu (from Disney’s The Lion King) and Iago (from Disney’s Aladdin) to the opera “The Tales of Hoffman” by Jacques Offenbachattraction.

===The Enchanted Tiki Room's preshow begins as guests wait outside of the Sunshine Pavilion. When the show is close to beginning, a waterfall found in the middle of the queue opens up to reveal two toucans, Claude (voiced by Sebastian Cabot) and Clyde (voiced by Dallas McKennon).

===The Tiki Tiki Tiki Room===Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room begins with guests entering the Enchanted Tiki Room, only to find all of the birds inside sleeping.

After Jose is awake, the macaw wakes up the attractions three other hosts: Michael (a white and green macaw), Pierre (a white and blue macaw) and Fritz (a red, black, and white macaw).

Here a “Bird Mobile” full of female birds descends from the ceiling (although effect has ceased working recently). Pierre then introduces the girls by name as: Colette, Suzette, Mimi, Gigi, Fifi and Josephine, before he is interrupted by Jose who wonders aloud "I wonder what ever happened to Rosita".

After Pierre and Jose make jokes about the situation, Fritz warns them that all of the celebrating has angered the gods. Michael then tells guests that he hopes they will remember the amazing things they have seen in the Enchanted Tiki Room. The birds, Tikis and flowers then briefly recap what has happened. ====Song Lyrics====[[Image:tikitImagineer.jpg|400px|thumb|A WED designer painting Jose| Imagineer working on Tiki Room Jose]]'''Birds:''' The birdies had their fling (birds chirp and sing on cue) You heard the flowers sing. '''Flowers:''' Tahu tahu uhu wai la... '''Birds:''' Tikis play the drums (the tiki drums play on cue)Hear them do the chant (totem poles chant on cue) '''Totem Poles'''Tahuwai la a tahuwai wai la Ehu hene la a pili koo lua la Pututui lua ite toe la Hanu lipo ita paalai Hupto da ha ta he um '''Everyone'''Farewell, and Aloha to youuu... ===Heigh Ho===After the group song has ended, Jose tells guests to give the birds a standing ovation.
