The Main Street Cinema has closed to allow for the installation of a new Sherman Brothers tribute in the location. New signage can already be found outside the cinema. Daps Magic team member Steven stopped by Disneyland on Tuesday and took pictures of people hard at work bringing the new offering to the Main Street Cinema:
The tribute will include the short film The Last Verse, which was first shown at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event in 2024 during the Jolly Holiday: A Musical Tribute to Richard M. Sherman panel. This film “celebrates the timeless connection and hope behind the Sherman brothers’ iconic song, It’s a Small World.” The film also unveiled the third and final verse for the tune, which also debuted at D23 last summer during the Jolly Holiday panel.
The third and final verse of it’s a small world will also be added to the attraction of the same name at Disneyland and Walt Disney World starting on July 17, 2025.
The lyrics for the third verse are:
“Mother earth unites us in heart and mind
And the love we give makes us humankind
Through our vast wondrous land
When we stand hand in hand
It’s a small world after all.”
It would turn out that this third and final verse was the last contribution that Richard Sherman would make to The Walt Disney Company. He passed in 2024.
