A recent local estate settlement unearthed this rare piece of Disneyana ephemera, after having been coveted and stored away for over five decades. Thank God for the people that had the infinite wisdom to know there would be a day that someone would appreciate the history saved and afforded to the younger generations! History MUST NOT be lost, nor forgotton!
The Wally Boag Story...
Wally Boag-The Clown Prince of Disneyland.  Wally Boag starred at the Golden Horseshoe for nearly 27 years and in nearly 40,000 performances, a World Record! He also brought his unique humor and comedic style to the Diamond Horseshoe Review at Walt Disney World Resort when it opened in 1971. Boag even provided the voice of the Audio-Animatronics parrot, Jose, for “Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room.”
A tribute to Wally Boag by Steve Martin...
Disney Legend Wally Boag passed away at the age of 90 on June 7th, 2011.
Disneyland Resort President George A. Kalogridis spoke for all of us when he said, “The world’s stage has experienced a great loss in the passing of Disney Legend Wally Boag. Wally was instrumental in the development of live entertainment during the early years of both Disneyland park and Walt Disney World Resort. His characters will continue to live in the hearts of our guests, while his larger than life personality will forever make him the true ‘Clown Prince of Disneyland.’”
Beginning in 1955, Wally’s performances in the Golden Horseshoe Revue delighted Disneyland park guests for decades. He also brought his unique humor and comedic style to the Diamond Horseshoe Review at Walt Disney World Resort when it opened in 1971. In nearly 27 years on Disney Parks stages, it’s estimated that Wally gave between 39,000 and 40,000 performances. That is a lot of laughter for one man to generate.
Some of that laughter came from a young Steve Martin, a fellow Disneyland Resort cast member of Wally’s, and like him, a future Disney Legend. When I learned of Wally’s passing, I asked Steve if he would would like to share any memories of Wally, whom he described Friday as “my hero…my influence, a man to whom I aspired.”
Steve sent me the following tribute, which he originally prepared for Wally’s book, “The Clown Prince of Disneyland,”
