ORLANDO, Fla. – As Central Florida celebrates Disney World’s 50th, we’re reminded of all the changes that have happened in the half-century since it opened.

We spoke with one cast member who has been there since the start. Forrest Bahruth spent a career as director of live entertainment.
He gives us a nostalgic tour of main street entertainment. Check it out by watching the video at the top of this story.
