Located in Grizzly Hall, Frontierland, the Country Bear Jamboree is a 15 minute hilarious stage show performed by Audio-Animatronic characters. The show is based around the songs of 18 bears who are introduced by Henry, The Master of Ceremonies, who keeps the show together. Country and western music, interwoven with "backwoods" humor, makes for an entertaining show. You'll particularly like it if you like country music, but if you're like me and don't like country, then you'll probably still enjoy it for its "send-up" qualities. The main theme of the Country Bear Jamboree was conceived by Walt Disney in 1966. Originally, he planned to build the attraction around bear-characters who could laugh, talk, and play musical instruments. He also wanted the bears to look as strange as they sounded and to further individualize the Country Bear Jamboree performers, each one was given a distinctive personality, voices and mannerisms to match their appearance.
