Studio C is a stage concept found at Chuck E. Cheese's locations that opened from 1997-2012 and were used to replace existing stages. The first iteration of Studio C, the Studio C Alpha, was installed from 1997-2002, 2012, and 2015. Following that was the Studio C Prototype as the company experimented towards the Studio C Beta, which was installed from 2000-2012. A "smalltown" version of Studio C, Studio C Cappa, was installed from 2003-2006, and 2009.

History

In 1997, the Awesome Adventure Machine was considered a failure among Showbiz executives and was scrapped as a concept. However, the company was still focused on producing a single-animatronic show. Showbiz consulted several different clients to create animatronics for the new generation, and ultimately landed on Garner Holt Productions, who created the Chuck E. Cheese 32m (Animatronic), Chuck E. Cheese 16m (Animatronic), Parrot (Animatronic), and some of the props for the shows.

The oldest operating Studio C location is the Brookfield, Wisconsin, which opened in December 1997.

Remnants of the original prototype Studio C show remain in the programming room of the Chuck E. Cheese's Corporate Office.

Studio C is no longer programmed as of September 19, 2022, starting with Chuck E. Cheese Halloween Boo-Tacular 2022 Show.

The regular Studio C show contains one Chuck E. Animatronic and video monitors.
