About Doug (top)

The first completely original book musical ever to be written for Walt Disney World. The six million dollar production, based on the award winning ABC animated television program, mixed a cast of live actors with animated characters from the series, ingenious special effects from the Disney Imagineers and 5 original songs.

The Story (top)

“Strap on your imagination for a Doug adventure so cool it had to come to life!” advised the promotional material for Doug Live!, our Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park show that premiered in 1999. During the 4 years that Doug Live! was performed, it was advertised as “a laugh-filled live adventure that takes you beyond anything you could ever see on TV!” But for the best description of the musical, you’d have to turn to Jim Jinkins, creator of Disney’s Doug.

“ We’d been noodling around the idea of a Doug musical for several years,” said Jinkins in an interview for Disney Magazine. “For the live action show, we combined some of our favorite things we’ve seen happen in the Doug series. Obviously, Doug’s massive crush on Patti is at the center of the story. Doug is worried that Pattie might be going on a date with Roger, of all people! Throughout the show, Doug tries to be all these other people in order to impress Patti which is backfiring like crazy, all the way up to the fantasy of Quailman (Doug’s super hero fantasy character). The theme of the musical is that it’s best to be yourself, to trust in who you are.”
