Kissimmee, FL- The Arabian Nights Holiday Show, Scheherazade’s Wish, opened on November 23, 2010 for the holiday season. The production’s opening marks the sixth year of the Arabian Nights Holiday show. This year, the Holiday Show will run through January 2, 2011.
During the performance, guests join Princess Scheherazade as her husband, Prince Khalid is called away shortly before Christmas. The always-faithful genie Hocus Pocus invites a new friend, Santa Claus, to come distract Scheherazade with gifts and good cheer until Khalid returns.
The genie Hocus Pocus and Santa Claus bring Toy Soldiers, Gingerbread Men, Acrobatic Elves and Sugarplum Fairies to life before their eyes in a variety of horse-related acts. The spectacular Jack Frost aerial act will also return this year. This act features a talented acrobat who takes to the air from the back of a moving horse to perform an acrobatic routine while suspended from silk cords.
“Our Holiday show is memorable and unique, combining beautiful costumes, daring horse acts and festive music with a rhyming script that entertains guests of all ages,” said Executive Vice President Audrey Padgett. She continued, “Many guests are impressed by the message of togetherness and the strength of the holiday theme in every aspect, from the costumes to the lighting and music.”
During the fabulous show, guests will also enjoy a choice of sirloin steak, Black Angus chopped steak with gravy, pork loin with marsala sauce, grilled chicken breast, chicken tenders or Vegetarian lasagna as their entree and either oreo fudge brownie or New York style cheesecake for dessert. All entrees also come with unlimited Busch beer, house wine and soda.
Hocus Pocus brings each of Santa’s gifts to life in the magical Palace of Horses located at the intersection of U.S. 192 and I-4, just minutes from the Walt Disney World Resort.
Guests can also join Princess Scheherazade, Prince Khalid and Hocus Pocus on New Year’s Eve, where they can enjoy the dazzling Holiday Show at a special 10 pm show time and stay to ring in the New Year as part of a special New Year’s Eve package. Available through the reservations department, the package includes pre-show appetizers, live DJ, roaming entertainers, a countdown to the New Year and champagne toast at midnight.
