We have seen a lot of changes of the parks icons at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in recent months. First the Sorcerer Hat was removed and we got to see the Chinese Theater as a park icon again, but we also got left with a huge area of walls in front of it.

This weekend those walls came down and a new stage popped up. The stage is there to help out during event such as the upcoming Star Wars Weekends and Frozen Summer Fun, a necessary evil if you will. But the beautiful  Chinese Theater has also gotten some help with a fresh coat of paint and other refreshments to make it look “Old Hollywood” glamorous again.
