The Lowdown on the Plus-up - A Theme Park Podcast

Tropic Standard Time with Ken Bruce - The Enchanted Tiki Room


Listen Later

Ken Bruce spent 16 years researching and writing about the most important piece of theme park pop art ever made: Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room. The resulting book not only tells the history of that attraction, but serves to show how its story is the story of how we see the modern theme park as a whole.
Ken was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his book and the stories and myths surrounding Walt Disney's most personal attraction which, over six decades later, is still delighting audiences at Disneyland.

His book "Before the Birds Sang Words" is available at Amazon or from his website, https://www.tikiroom63.com.
