Reflections Of Earth
''IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth'' was a nighttime show performed nightly at Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort in Bay Lake, Florida. The show utilized fireworks, pyrotechnics, water fountains, fire effects, lasers, searchlights, and a large rotating globe with curved LED screens to create a visual production on the park's World Showcase Lagoon. The show told the story of Earth and was divided into three movements titled "Chaos," "Order," and "Meaning", emphasizing the idea of humanity as a single unified tribe on this planet. The lagoon was surrounded by nineteen large torches signifying the first 19 centuries of the common era, and the show culminated in the globe opening like a lotus blossom to reveal a twentieth torch, representing the now-completed 20th century. Created and directed by Don Dorsey, the show premiered on October 1, 1999, as ''IllumiNations 2000: Reflections of Earth'' as part of the Walt Disney World Millennium Celebration.

The first performance of the cycle was given on 30 January 1940 at the Aeolian Hall, London, Aeolian Hall, London ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
