I'm gonna have to live longer. I've had many moments of fun but not many that I regret. There was West Point but that's a story for another time.

Do you mean the boys (I like them!) or you mean tats? Haven't seen those. :confused:

Tatooedhope, I work with CMs who have tats. As long as your tats are covered, you are good to go. Stores @ DLR allows long sleeves for both sexes. IDK abt stores @ WDW. Welcome to SGT mania.

To amplify what Main Streeter said, I'm a character attendant and know some face characters with tats. If you can't see them they don't care. Of course, I would not recommend getting them just the same. Good luck in your audition!

Thank you for the input! Sadly, I have one on each wrist, and one on my upper left bicep. Kills pretty much every princess for me. I could be villains, but I realized that also comes with possibly being in Fantasmic, and I'm phobic of pyrotechnics. I deal with the fireworks at night, but if I can steer clear of them, that's preferred. Haha.

I'm tattooed and phobic of pyrotechnics. Of all the places I could dream of working, it happens to be a place that's tattoo unfriendly and pyrotechnic friendly.

Unless I'm mistaken, though, aren't in park characters a different department within entertainment from Parades/Show characters (which would include Fantasmic?)

Nope, not AFAIK. Though normally, AFAIK, friends of the characters start out doing meet and greets and can move to doing parades and shows if they want after a while. Nobody is forced to into a show or parade from doing meet and greets (in other words, one can keep doing meet and greets forever if they wish).


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
