In our last Disney at Play podcast we spoke of Pleasure Island and it's offerings. We talked about the clubs, the food & beverage, retail and other entertainment. And we spoke about how it came to be and how it competed against Orlando's Church Street Station. In this podcast we look at how well the concept was accepted, and how initially the nighttime venue failed to deliver. We talk about how Michael Eisner's own Funmeister turned the club around, and created what was a fairly successful venue for well over a decade. Then we talk about what factors ultimately led to the end of Pleasure Island. Join us in this podcast for what saved and killed Pleasure Island.
