Disneyland's Dick Tracy (1 of 4)

[@perryL14]

Well, I for one thought it was great...I should know, I played Big Boy! Thank you for the post...great memories of a terribly hard show to perform for 28 minutes non-stop!

[@brettyg76]

Perry Lambert hi Perry... do you know if this soundtrack was ever released (cd or mp3 at least)???.. I'd love to listen to it

[@perryL14]

@@brettyg76 As of now I don't know of a soundtrack existing. I did hear that it was going to be revived in NYC.

[@Dragonrider1227]

You were Big Boy? That’s so cool! This looks like it was an exhausting show to perform but fun to watch even after all this time

[@supercrazy87]

That's very cool man. Hope you are doing well

[@cruz84azul]

Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooo much for posting this!!!!!!!!!!! I went to that show and was soooooo excited the night before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man I miss this show!

[@irmadcow93]

Oh the memories, i worked videopolis that year and saw this show far too many times lol oh the good ol days, sigh

[@sspdirect02]

I think it would have been cool if Warren Beatty appeared in the stage show as a one time appearance as Dick Tracy!

[@tubafoole]

I remember this stage show at DL(former annual passholder).This was my favorite stage show,on this video I was sitting on the front row center in the aisle seat

[@supercrazy87]

I remember this from my home movies from Disney world. Thank you so much, I was 7 when it came out and the music still sticks with me today.

I know people HATE this show - but I think it's the best show since the Kids of the Kingdom at Disney (as in the REAL KOK - from the 80s)... The staging and choreography, both the dancers and the set movement, is pretty damn BRILLIANT. I love it.

[@filmfreak11]

It was Videopolis, One Man's Dream, Dick Tracy, Plane Crazy, Beauty & the Beast, Pocahontas, Animazement, Mickey's Detective School, Snow White, and now Princess Fantasy Faire.

[@filmfreak11]

I love the stageplay & movie myself

[@filmfreak11]

I think it's cool :). Shows how memorable it really is.

[@josephmora5230]

I was so upset that none of Madonna's songs from "I'm Breathless" weren't used =)

[@bingotheraccoon]

I didn't know Videopolis was around that long. And it's weird how they promoted a movie that has Madonna having her chest blurred out when on television...

[@hididdleydee]

I missed this when it was at the park. LOVE the bright comic-book sets and costumes!! Confused by the wretched music. Was there something wrong with the Sondheim songs and Elfman score???

[@filmfreak11]

Well when I said "inspiration", I meant movie & stageplay plot-wise.

[@JoshKenfield]

This is still the best recording of this production. Would you ever consider uploading and posting it again for a slightly better quality version?

[@filmfreak11]

@jimmymerced, hmmm. I thought I changed that a while ago. I remember a "Tom Child", I don't recognize the other name yet. Thanks for reading the description. :)

[@hididdleydee]

I missed this when it was at the park. Love the bright comic-book set design!! Confused by the wretched music. Was there something wrong with the Stephen Sondheim - yes Stephen Sondheim...look it up - masterpieces from the film???

[@stmrss7410]

Where can get(or buy) those great songs?

[@awfullygreat7672]

These Dick Tracy videos are awesome. Would you mind if I used them in a Dick Tracy retrospective video I'm making? Thanks!

[@puterboy2]

Is this show the closest thing the 1990 movie has to a sequel or a spin off? Because there have been talks of Warren Beatty getting many attempts at producing one.

[@filmfreak11]

You mean in that black "dress" in her dressing room with Tracy?

[@filmfreak11]

Well the Dick Tracy stories came from a comic book series source. The movie took that hint and IMHO did a brilliant job. This show reflects that comic book feel and takes a hint of inspiration from the movie. I love the music. "Calling Dick Tracy" is catchy. Plus, it's a musical. I know not many people like musicals. So I just take it for what it is. Go check out a youtube video of Disney-MGM's show. IMO, not as good of a job as Disneyland's.

[@filmfreak11]

Do you actually see yourself in the video??

[@rextony22]

wow thanks.

[@broadwaymac486]

"Calling ... Dicky Tracy!" love it! LOL.

[@bingotheraccoon]

I think so... (It's been a while)

[@filmfreak11]

Let me know when you do :)

[@guitarwithjamesoffical]

[@muffles12]

[@filmfreak11]

Disneyland is my drug of choice... does that sound lame? Haha.

[@syrovision]

lolz

[@mst3kpimp]

well its better than the crappy movie

[@BigOldJimmy]

A hint of inspiration from the movie? It's directly taken from the movie! The logo... the costumes... the makeup... the schtick... it's all from the movie. I like the movie, too. I like a lot of Disney films, which is why when I go to the Disney parks I avoid the live shows like the plague. Overall it's obvious that these are some talented singers and dancers, but the people who write the show are complete hacks.

[@BigOldJimmy]

The music is horrible. Dick Tracy takes place in the 1930s, but there's a faux-rock music soundtrack. Who writes this crap? I like Disney parks, but the live shows are atrociously stupid.
