Studio C Alpha is a stage format that was installed in Chuck E. Cheese's locations from 1997-2002.
History
After the Awesome Adventure Machine's failure, the single Animatronic Show idea was still being considered by Showbiz Pizza Time, they were still looking for a way to replace Munch's Make Believe Band with only one animatronic.
In 1997, SPT contracted Garner Holt to build over 250 animatronics, with the first reveal of the animatronic at Showbiz Pizza Time Home Office on October 3rd 1997. Then the animatronic debuted for General Managers at the Las Vegas GM Convention in February 1998.
The first known locations to have Studio "C" were at the North Dallas, TX and Brookfield, WI Locations. Brookfield being the first to open with the show. in December of 1997 and the North Dallas, TX store being the first to have replaced an existing show. The Brookfield, WI Studio C is currently the oldest operating as of 2022.
Design and Features
This show was designed to look like a late-night talk show, going as far as to calling it Studio "C".
Chuck E. Cheese takes center stage once again and is hosting his own late night show and is accompanied by Bird and on screen friends. Surrounding Chuck is a desk with five panels that light up to the music, around his stage consisted of animated props such as a pizza phone, clock, and boom mic.
To the left of Chuck E. had a giant monitor with lighting surrounding it, below it was an Interactive Console with various elements and activities.
The Stage on the opposite side of Chuck E.'s consisted of a Bluescreen area with a chromakey camera in the front of it. Above it were 2 monitors that displayed what ever was in front of the Bluescreen over a video.
For a select few locations there was a coin operated Karaoke system with kiddie songs called the "Star Search" located in the Bluescreen area. This was a short lasted feature as it was only available from 1999 to 2000 and Studio C stopped supporting it around the 2000s.
