The Decor of World Chorus!

The theming of World Chorus existed not only within the spiral of buildings itself, but outside the attraction too!


Entrance!


Gotta love the blairesque font! ^^


The entrance changed a little over the years. At one point it had banners matching the cloud banners over the ride’s queue line.


Blurry but it appears there is an African boy, French girl, American boy, Indian girl, Russian boy or Beefeater, and the conductor!


Now there are new banners to match the banners in the ride’s queue, and a redone version of the previous banner. Could you call this the entrance to the exit? XD


End of the pavilion


There were 2 exits to the pavilion, a direct one if you wanted to skip the fun walkthrough (why would you??) and an indirect one (that was a little higher up once you followed the spiral) that led to a cute banner. Both had the same cloud walls that were in the entire attraction, and the same double doors.



The end of the pavilion had this banner, which had the slogan of France Telecom, and depicted a Dutch girl, African boy, Peruvian girl, the conductor, Thai girl, American cowboy, and Belgian girl.

The Buildings of World Chorus!

Overview These are images of the buildings inside World Chorus. The walls of the attraction were decorated in yellow, purple, pink and orange, and had handrails to guide people and also avoid them getting too close to the buildings and characters inside, likely to keep illusions and ensure there was no damage. The room was framed to hide the lighting through the use of several orange clouds, which also gave the appearance of a spiral, and the entire room gave the idea of enlarging, as the animation became progressively more and more advanced as the buildings increased in scale and size. GRRRRRR >:/// Darn you protection, but luckily there’s like nothing useful on here haha The Flag The attraction’s flag boasted the famous slogan, alongside the sponsorship detail, to show guests this was a continuation of the ride they had just been on, in a walkthrough experience! The Eiffel Tower The Eiffel Tower held the only animatronic in the entire room- a small conductor doll with pale skin, b...

A critique of a 20-year-old paper by Laudan Nooshin (Circumnavigation with a Difference? Music, Representation and the Disney Experience: It’s A Small, Small World)

Hey guys! This is a slightly different type of post to usual, but a while ago I stumbled on an academic paper called ‘Circumnavigation with a Difference? Music, Representation and the Disney Experience: It’s A Small, Small World’, and as an it’s a small world enthusiast, I wanted to look into the paper and what it might be talking about. However, I think Nooshin fundamentally misses the purpose for which the ride is created. Whilst I can’t claim to be an authority on Orientalism or very well versed in music theory, I want to create a counter-argument for Nooshin’s claim based on the message that the Disneyland Paris version of it’s a small world and the park as a whole aims to share, and reveal the idea that the ride’s simplicity of nature is what makes it so beautiful, alongside how the park humanises the ‘other’ and encourages us to explore perspectives beyond our own. This is neither an essay (mostly) nor an attack, merely just someone sharing their thoughts. And a fun fact, this pa...
