==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 hosted Inspired by four macaws of differing nationalities – Jose (Mexican)the technology used within the toy,Michael (Irish),Pierre (French)Walt decided that if toy makers could animate 3D objects, his Imagineers could too. After dissecting the bird and Fritz (German)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 With this new technology in hand, Walt decided to revisit an old idea. Earlier in the attraction 1950s, Disney had planned on building a Chinese restaurant (complete with an Audio Animatronic Confucius) for Disneyland's Main Street USA <ref name="D23"/>. Also included in the show was re-themed to be a number of real and given imaginary animals, including birds. Although the name human Audio Animatronic proved too difficult, Walt decided to retheme the restaurant as a Polynesian musical revue, featuring singing tropical birds. The restaurant was going to be called “The Enchanted Tiki Room Room” (Under New Managementalthough some sources use the name "Tiki Hut"). The new show featured Zazu from Disney's The Lion King and Iago from Disney's Aladdin. The change it was to be located in Disneyland’s Adventureland <ref name= "org"/> <ref name= "Spence"> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/walt_disney_world/theme_parks/magic_kingdom/adventureland/the_enchanted_tiki_room/ </ref>. Although Disney announced plans for the attraction was done restaurant to give the show a more modern feel. Besides just public, logistical concerns eventually derailed the addition of new charactersidea. It was determined that a full course meal would take between 45 and 60 minutes on average, new songs were added and thus a very limited number of guests would be able to make see the musical show more “hip”<ref name= "Spence"/>. On October 9, 1963, Walt decided that instead of creating a dinner show, Disney would create a full-fledged attraction <ref name= "D23"/>.
In 2011 order to turn this new Tiki attraction into a small fire broke out in 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= "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). It was rumored that one of Although much more realistic then Crump's designs, Gibson still did not create an "absolutely realistic parrot" in order to give the Iago Audio Anamatronics was damagedhosts some character <ref name= "D23"/>. Although these rumors were never substantiated Assisting Gibson in creating characters was Imagineer Marc Davis who designed the totems who come to life inside the attraction was closed on January 11, 2011as well as some of the singing flowers and birds <ref name= "D23"/>. The show was then changed back When it came to creating the original (albeit birds themselves, Imagineer Harriet Burns was charged with some minor changes) designing and was renamed creating the feathering, which she often did using real feathers. When describing his vision for the birds, Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Roomtold Burns, "I want these birds to be so real you can see them breathe." <ref name= "D23"/>
With the design of the show now in place, Walt turned to the Sherman Brothers to create a new song for the attraction <ref name="Spence"/>, which had a working title of Legends of the Enchanted Tiki <ref>https://d23.com/tiki-room-50th-anniversary-archives/</ref>. According to the Shermans, “we suggested that the song could be done in a calypso beat: ‘the Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room.’ It had a sound you could remember. And Walt bought the idea, just like that." <ref name=The Tropical Serenade==The Tropical Serenade operated from 1971 until 1997 "D23"/> As they were working on the attraction, the Sherman brothers suggested that a specific parrot be the emcee of the entire show. Walt liked this idea, but took it one step further. Instead of relying on a single host, the attraction would be hosted by four parrots which had French, Spanish, German, and Irish accents. Besides just providing the Tiki Room with a catchy song, the Sherman brothers also previewed what would be coming in the Sunshine Pavilionrest of the attraction with their opening number [[The Tiki Tiki Tiki Room]] <ref> https://www.youtube. ===Tropical Serenade Plot==com/watch?v=trtJMX90Etw </ref>.
The Tropical Serenade really began in Although the pre-show. Outside Sherman Brother's song set the stage for the rest of the attraction, The Enchanted Tiki Room 's script was Clyde written by Larry Clemmons, Marty Sklar, Wally Boag, and Claude who told Fulton Burley <ref name= "magic"> http://www.wdwmagic.com/articles/10aug2016-let's-all-sing-like-the audience how they found the Enchanted Tiki Room-birdies-sing---part-ii. They would then precede to tell guests about htm </ref>. Hosting the show tropical revue was four macaws named Jose, Fritz, Michael and try to get them to enter the Tiki RoomPierre (voiced respectively by Wally Boag, Fulton Burley, Thrul Ravenscroft, and Ernie Newton <ref name= "magic"/> .
Once inside, guests would find that Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room birds were asleep! A cast member would have finally opened to wake up Jose (either by hitting him with a stick, or having the audience wake him up) who would then wake his co-hosts Pierre, Fritz and Michael. Once the four hosts were up it was time to “wake up the glee club”. The birds would then sing the attractions official song “[[The Tiki Tiki Tiki Room]]”. The song welcomed guests to the Tiki Room and gave them a picture of what was in store. According to the song in the Tiki Room the “Birds sing wordson June 23, and the flowers croon”1963. Various birds from around In total the room were also attraction featured in “the Tiki Tiki Tiki Room” including macaws, toucans and the bird of paradise. After the opening number was over, the birds would begin to whistle "Barcarolle” from the opera “The Tales of Hoffman” by Jacques Offenbach. After the “Barcarolle” number the four hosts would “introduce the girls” who were perched on the Enchanted Fountain. The girls would lead the Tiki Room in the song, “Lets All Sing Like the Birdies Sing”. The song would show the different vocal styles of the host birds. Jose croons like Bing Crosby, Michael sings like Louis Armstrong and Pierre sings like Maurice Chavieller. During the song the Tiki Room birds would invite guests whistle along before the song endeda stunning 225 Audio Animatronic characters performing a 17 minute tropical revue.
After “Lets All Sing Like ===Walt Disney World===Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room proved to be a smash hit for Disneyland, and thus it was an obvious choice for inclusion in Walt Disney World. In the Birdies Sing” Jose introduced Magic Kingdom, the orchids who along with Enchanted Tiki Room was renamed "Tropical Serenade" and housed inside the flowers on Sunshine Pavilion sponsored by the wall sang “The Hawaiian War Chant”Citrus Florida Growers <ref name= "dated"> http://waltdatedworld. com/id47.htm </ref>. [[Image:UnderNewManagement.jpg|thumb|400px|In 1998 The Enchanted Tiki Room (Under New Management) opened]]Opening with the middle rest of the song park on October 1, 1971, Tropical Serenade was essentially a carbon copy of the flowers Disneyland show. With that being said, there were interrupted by major differences in the Tiki Statues who began to chant faster queue and faster before making it thunderstormattraction building. Michael informs the room that the Gods have been angered by all the celebratingFor starters, and Tropical Serenade featured three separate covered lines, giving the birds decide itqueue more order then its Disneyland counterpart. Furthermore, while Disneyland's time for preshow centered on Tiki god statues, the show to end -but not before Tropical Serenade preshow focused on two birds named Clyde and Claude having a recap song! On conversation with each other<ref name= "dated"/>. Also of note is the way out, fact that the Tiki Room birds sang Tropical Serenade was housed in a much lager theater then the Disneyland version of Heigh-Ho to exiting the show, and the attraction was topped with a large pagoda that drew gueststo the Sunshine Pavilion <ref> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/stt.htm </ref>
The Tropical Serenade remained unchanged until 1997, when the show closed for renovations. Due to the attractions waning popularity, Disney decided they needed to seriously update the show. In order to do this, Imagineers added the popular characters Zazu (from Disney’s The Lion King) and Iago (from Disney’s Aladdin) to the attraction. Furthermore, the show was given a new plot that centered around Iago and Zazu becoming the new owners of the Tiki Room <ref name="yester"> http://www.yesterland.com/newmanagement.html </ref>. Although the show featured a brand new script and musical numbers, the original Tiki birds remained a part of the show <ref name="yester"/>. After an extensive refurbishment, the Tropical Serenade reopened as The Enchanted Tiki Room (Under New Management on April 5, 1998 <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/the-enchanted-tiki-room-under-new-management.htm </ref>.  Despite Disney's efforts to make the new show appeal to a wider audience, Under New Management quickly proved to be unpopular with guests and attendance problems once again plagued the attraction <Ref name="Spence"/>. In 2011 a small fire broke out in the attic of the Tiki Room theater, causing the sprinkler system to be activated <Ref name= "yester"/>. Although no one was injured in the fire, it has been heavily speculated that the Audio Animatronic Iago was badly damaged and that the attraction suffered some water damage <ref> http://thedisneyblog.com/2011/01/16/update-on-tiki-room-fire/ </ref>. The damage from the fire combined with the fact that a refurbished Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room in Disneyland had regained its popularity, convinced Disney that the time was right to bring back the Tropical Serenade <ref name= "Spence"/>. To this end, on August 15, 2011 <ref> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/2011/08/walt_disneys_enchanted_tiki_ro_1.html </ref> the original show reopened as Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room. Opening in time for the Magic Kingdom's 40th anniversary <ref name= "yester"/>, Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room follows the same script as the original show, however it is six minutes shorter. This brevity was caused by the removal of the "Barcarolle" number from Offenbach's "The Tales of Hoffman” opera <ref name="magic"/> and some of the attraction's dialogue <ref> http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/walt_disney_world's_magic_kingdom/enchanted_tiki_room/ </ref> <ref name= "Spence"/>. ==Attraction Plot==Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room is a Polynesian Revue, featuring 150 singing Audio Animatronics.===Preshow===[[Image:ClaudeClyde.jpg|thumb|500px|Claude and Clyde welcome guests to the Enchanted Tiki Room|alt= tiki room, preshow, Claude, Clyde, Disney World]] 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). After introducing themselves, Claude and Clyde tell the humerus tale of how they found the Enchanted Tiki Room before telling the audience that they hope that (guests) have a real "Tropical Serenade".  ===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. A cast member then “wakes up” Jose (The red, white and green macaw located in the middle of the room) by either taping him with a stick or having the audience cheer loudly. 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). With the four hosts now ready to put on the show, Michael says they need to “wake up the glee club”, which he does with a loud whistle. As all of the birds throughout the room begin to chirp, the cast sings the attraction's first song [[The Tiki Tiki Tiki Room]] ====Song Lyrics====[[Image:Jose.jpg|thumb|500px|Jose, one of the hosts of the Enchanted Tiki Room|alt= Jose Tiki Room Magic Kingdom]] '''Jose:''' Ole, ole it's 'cho time. '''All:''' In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room,In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room '''Jose:''' All the birds sing words '''Michael:''' And the flowers croon '''All:''' In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room. '''Michael:'''Welcome to our tropical hideaway, you lucky people you,if we weren't in the show starting right away, we'd be in the audience too. '''All:''' Altogether!In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room,in the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room '''Jose:''' All the birds sing words '''Michael:''' And the flowers croon '''All:''' In the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room. '''Fritz:''' I sing so beautiful, I should sing solo. '''Jose:''' Si, so low we can't HEAR you. '''Pierre:''' My voice may not be so marvelous, but my profile is out of this world.[[Image:InsideTiki.jpg|thumb|500px|The inside of the Enchanted Tiki Room| alt= tiki room interior]]'''Michael:''' Jawohl, but the trouble is - it's not FAR enough out of this world.Isn't that right Herr Schmidt?

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". The girls then start singing the attraction's second song, "Let's All Sing Like the Birdies Sing"====Song Lyrics===='''Girls:'''Let's all sing like the birdies sing,Tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet,Let's all sing like the birdies sing,Sweet, sweet swee-ee-eet, sweet,Let's all warble like nightingales,Give your throat a treat,Take your time from the birds,Now you all know the words,Tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet. '''Jose (Impersonating Bing Crosby):'''Let's all sing like the birdies sing.Bubbaboo, ba bubbaboo, baboo... '''Michael (Impersonating Louis Armstrong):'''Let's all sing like the birdies sing,Tweet tweet tweet, my that bird sings sweetly. '''Pierre (Impersonating Maurice Chevauliver):'''Let's all warble like nightingales,Ah, qui qui, est magnifique,Take your time from ze birds,Now you all know ze words. '''Girls:''' Tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet. ===Hawaiian War Chant===After the girls finish their song, Pierre introduces the next act as a “musical luau!” On this cue, the flowers located throughout the Tiki Room begin to sing. They are soon joined by the totem poles. ====Song Lyrics====[[Image:tikitiki.jpg|400px|thumb|One of the performing Tikis]]The lyrics for the Hawaiian War Chant are difficult to find, and tough to understand. To the best of our knowledge the lyrics are: '''Flowers:'''Tahuwai la a tahuwai wai la  Ehu hene la a pili koo lua la  Pututui lu a ite toe la  Hanu lipo ita paalai  Au we ta huala  Au we ta huala Tahuwai la a tahuwai wai la Ehu hene la a pili koo lua la Pututui lu a ite toe la Hanu lipo ita paalai (eo-eo-eo) Tahuwai la a tahuwai wai la Ehu hene la a pili koo lua la[[Image:PierreTiki.jpg|400px|thumb|Pierre, one of the four hosts of the Enchanted Tiki Room.|alt= Pierre Tiki Room]] Pututui lu a ite toe la Hanu lipo ita paalai (eo-eo-eo) Au we ta, huala huala, Au we ta, huala huala, huala huala, huu-aaa-laa '''(drums, chanting, and a soloist begin)''' '''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 Oh ah hahey ah ah, Oh ha hahey ah ah[[Image:tikidrummer2.jpg|400px|thumb|Tikis drumming in the Enchanted Tiki Room|alt= Tiki Room drummer]]'''Entire Tiki Room:'''Tahuwai la a tahuwai wai la Ta hua oh oh oh Ta hua Awahahawy Awahahahay hua awayah away hua huuua huuua awayaa. Ohh huhu ohh huhu aahhhhhhaaa Ohh huhu ohh huhu aahhhhhhaaa Awway hua Awway hua ohoohuhuhu ohuhuhuhu ohhhhuhuhu ohhhhuhuhu ohhhhhuhuhuuuuuuu  Awwayyyyyy ===Finale (Farewell and Aloha)===At the conclusion of the Hawaiian War Chant, a storm begins to brew outside of the Tiki Room and the lights briefly go out. 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. With everyone now standing, Fritz says that they are going to do a trick, “we're gonna make you all, disappear!” As guests are ushered out of the room, the entire Tiki Room sings “Heigh Ho” from Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, albeit with alternate lyrics written by Wally Boag <ref name= "magic"/>.  ====Song Lyrics===='''Entire Tiki Room:'''Heigh Ho, heigh ho, it's out the door you go, We hope you've all enjoyed the show heigh ho, heigh ho, Heigh ho heigh ho, heigh ho, keep marching in a row, Don't stop to look or read a book heigh ho, heigh ho, Heigh ho heigh ho, heigh ho, just lift your feet and go, You sing this song, you march along, heigh ho, heigh ho, Heigh ho heigh ho, heigh ho, step lively not so slow, Come back again we'll see you then, heigh ho, heigh ho, Heigh ho heigh ho, heigh ho, make room for our next show, There's boats outside go take a ride heigh ho, heigh ho, Heigh ho heigh ho, heigh ho, it's out the door you go, We hope you've all enjoyed the show, heigh ho, heigh ho! ==Cast<Ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/the-enchanted-tiki-room.htm </ref>==[[Image:LegendTiki.jpg|thumb|275px|A poster for Legends of the Enchanted Tiki (the Enchanted Tiki Room's working title)| alt=Tiki Room poster]]
