About
Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress follows an animatronic family from the early 1900s to the turn of the 21st century, with a focus on the technological innovations along the way that continue to shape our lives. The audience revolves around six stationary scenes set around holidays spanning the decades of the 20th century. While the scene depicting "the future" is actually behind a few ways technologically, this show remains truly enjoyable.
