We told you last week Equity Ben would be leaving his job at Disney – specifically For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration. On September 22, Ben took to his Instagram account to post the video below with the following text, “Some news… official announcement coming soon.”
Earlier today, Ben went back to his Instagram page and his 43K+ followers to share his official announcement.
He began with, “On the 49th anniversary of @waltdisneyworld I’m releasing my official announcement of my retirement. I read for years “I sustain myself with the love of family.“ Maya Angelou has always been right. Family first. But I was never able to do that…”
We’ll leave the rest up to you to read, but let us be the first to say that we will miss Ben’s comedic genius in For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration. Located in Hollywood Studios, this show has been a fan favorite for years.
The show will return October 5th in Hollywood Studios and it will be interesting to see how things proceed without Ben.
Will you miss Equity Ben at Walt Disney World? Let us know in the comments! We wish Ben and his family the absolute best and hope to see him in the parks!
