SeaWorld Orlando will debut an all-new killer whale show in April, replacing the popular “Believe” which has enjoyed a five-year run, a statement from the company said.
“One Ocean”, is scheduled to premiere at the end of April in Orlando and will feature SeaWorld’s majestic killer whales as ambassadors of the sea, and the ocean as the center of our natural world. The show connects guests with these remarkable animals and immerses the audience in the vivid colors and sensations of the underwater world. At the core of the show is the unifying message that both animals and humans are part of one world, with one ocean, and its future is in our hands to cherish and protect.
“This new show brings to life SeaWorld’s mission in the most powerful way yet,” said Jim Atchison, President and Chief Executive Officer of SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment. “This show is what guests love about our parks – thrilling entertainment that educates and inspires you to celebrate, connect and care for the world we share.”
The show will feature spectacular whale behaviors, including thrilling high-energy leaps and multiple whales performing simultaneously. The whales interact in new ways with trainers, the audience, each other, and even the set itself.
Last August, SeaWorld Orlando was cited by the U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), for three safety violations, including one classified as willful, following the death of one of its animal trainers.
The “One Ocean” whale show will also open in SeaWorld San Diego on Memorial Day weekend and SeaWorld San Antonio in June.
