SeaWorld mimes to return for Christmas sea lion show

SeaWorld Orlando’s mime act will return for the Christmas “Clyde and Seamore’s Countdown to Christmas” show. The three mime performers were let go in 2014 as part of a company-wide layoff. Earlier this year, park president Donnie Mills said he was looking for a way to bring the mimes back in some capacity.

Lynn Frey, one of the original three mimes, will be returning for the show; Jim Hackworth and Tom Munson will not. An open audition was held for those roles.



The three performers had worked for SeaWorld for over 20 years as part of the popular pre-show for the Clyde and Seamore sea lion show.

Her Chicago-born husband, David, left the city for her, and they're now raising their three children (Jacob, Jonah and Lydia) just 12 miles from her hometown. As the Senior Editor of the DIS (wdwinfo.com), Leah spends a lot of time writing about, reading about, and discussing Disney. So, it should come as no surprise that one of her family's favorite ways to spend time is going to Walt Disney World and traveling on Disney Cruise Line. She also enjoys shopping, watching movies with her husband and doing crafts with and for her kids.
