I actually enjoyed this more than the film itself. I especially appreciated the presence of actual Native American actors, singers and dancers in the cast.
Wow. I really loved this little outdoor theater. This was during the Eisner era I believe Those were the days when entertainment value trumped $$$. Great times; when the place was just oozing entertainment value (and the Hunchback show that followed might have been even better!). I miss these times [December 1971] Vet here...
Me too. December 6 1971 as I recall... Haven't been back since 2012; but that's cool. We experienced the place during its golden age. For all his faults Eisner actually understood the legacy, the place hasn't been the same since.
I loved how you uploaded this I needed this to see how to act for my dance I do dance and it’s ballet rehearsals so I perform for other people and it is based on Disney princess and I have a solo for Pocahontas so this helped me a lot thank you 😃🙂😊
Pocahontas is my favorite disney princess and every time we went to Disneyland I always drag my mom to this show at least once probably twice during the day when I found out they were getting rid of it I was like we have to go to Disneyland to watch at least one more time.
Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz made The Hunchback of Notre Dame into a stage musical and Stephen Schwartz made The Prince of Egypt into a stage musical and Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz should also make Pocahontas into a stage musical!
I wish that 28:41 - 29:40 was in the ending scene in "Pocahontas". Some of the reprises in Disney films have a chorus singing a reprise of a certain song, but Pocahontas is the only film that does not have that!
I enjoyed this, but am I the only one who thinks the singing isn't very good? I mean compared to the other shows they have to offer now, this singing is bad
This was probably one of the first time Disney had a mostly colored/non white cast. They did extensive castings nation wide to find Native Americans and POC to portray this important piece of history.
I’m so happy to see this is still up! I was one of the dancers in this show. I’m a tribal member of the Muscogee Creek Nation of Oklahoma.
Man that was amazing. Imagine if Dinsey made an actual musical based on the Pocahontas. How cool would that be.

They really paid attention to the movie
Pocahontas is my favorite Disney princess, i wish they still had this show at Disney when i went for the first time 2011. Thanks for the upload! :D

GoodKitty7 me too
I like her cause shes fierce and shes not like all those naive princess.
Finally someone else whose favorite Disney princess is Pocahontas. Every time we went to Disneyland I had to see this show, drove my mom nuts lol
Fact ; the daughter of a Native American chief called a princess is a sterio type
Wow.

Steady as the beating heart

My grandfather took me to see this show! Omg, I can't believe there's still footage of this! I'm crying now. Thank you for sharing this!❤️
i just cried my heart out like all the 30 minutes so beautiful
the inner child in me was in ecstasy
I wish this would come back.I would love too see this when I go to disney world for the first time this July!
Those saying she can't sing, you must have something stuck in your ear, she nails it perfectly. What is wrong with people...
I love how Powhatan's reprise of "Steady As A Beating Drum" is incorporated into the main song.
It’s actually the story teller
@@robertbreschard3493 Oh, sorry
Super! Pocahontas will always have a special place in my heart.
I wish I was able to remember this when I was at Disney!
Magic

I can't believe I found this! This used to be my favorite thing in the whole world!
This is a and great story
I saw this when I was at Disneyland back in August of 1997.
very good. wife and i enjoyed this. good day to roam the tube.
You crazy‼‼‼‼❇
Pocahontas is my favorite disney princess and every time we went to Disneyland I always drag my mom to this show at least once probably twice during the day when I found out they were getting rid of it I was like we have to go to Disneyland to watch at least one more time.
I would have given anything to get to see this. Pocahontas is my favorite.
Great video!
28:41 - 29:40 I wish that was included in the movie. Think about how powerful the ending to Pocahontas is if the chorus sang this.
She kinda sounds like Meg from Hercules but I think this is awesome!
I prefer the Tragic ending, but the whole cast singing "Colors of the Wind" was just gorgeous!!!
Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz made The Hunchback of Notre Dame into a stage musical and Stephen Schwartz made The Prince of Egypt into a stage musical and Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz should also make Pocahontas into a stage musical!
she couldn't that colors of the wind song that was pocahontas best song and she fucked it up
I remember watching this at disney world a lonnggg time ago when I was little
I love Pocahontas so much
Shes so cool
Jiminy Cricket Dawn Sparkle Nina Guillen Federico Guglielmo Donovan Oliver *we hear the legend of **Pocahontas Disney*

i don't like the new ending. The ending is used to be sad, or else it is no Pocahontas! Pocahontas does not have a happy ending!
I wish that 28:41 - 29:40 was in the ending scene in "Pocahontas". Some of the reprises in Disney films have a chorus singing a reprise of a certain song, but Pocahontas is the only film that does not have that!
Real endings are like that
Does someone knows who plays Powathan? :) he sings really good!!!
Anyone

I enjoyed this, but am I the only one who thinks the singing isn't very good? I mean compared to the other shows they have to offer now, this singing is bad
Is this a mostly white cast?
Because no. Just no.
