We all know Hercules, but Disney Cruise Line’s newest ship – the Disney Destiny – is putting a spin on the classic film and story in more than a few ways. Disney has staged theatrical versions of its animated films for years, but Hercules aboard the Destiny isn’t just another musical and separates itself from more recent adaptations.
One way is that it’s a showcase for some of the most advanced projection, tracking, and lighting technology currently being used in live entertainment, and it also uses exoskeletons – more on those at a later date, though. One moment in particular, during Meg’s “I Won’t Say (I’m In Love),” pushes that tech further than you would ever expect inside a cruise-ship theater.
