Stitch Live features spontaneous, unscripted conversations between Guests and Experiment 626, commonly known as Stitch, from the Disney animated film "Lilo & Stitch."  From his digital existence aboard a spaceship, Stitch chats, plays and jokes with Disney Guests in a unique, personalized way. 

Innovation:
Stitch Live represents one of Disney Imagineering's latest forays into real-time animation. Using digital projection and sophisticated, voice-activated animation, Imagineers created a new way for Disney guests to talk with Stitch. 

This next-generation attraction at Walt Disney Studios Park showcases Stitch's unique personality and spontaneity with one-of-a-kind performances.

Creativity: 
Stitch Live opens a new door of possibility where Disney guests and their favorite animated characters can talk, joke and play together in a way that only Disney can create. 

Stitch Live is the latest milestone in Disney's legacy of bringing characters to life in new and incredible ways.

 
The only creature of his kind. Stitch, an alien, is the result of an illegal genetic experiment by the mad scientist Jumba, who simply refers to him as "Experiment 626."  Although Stitch appears harmless - small, furry, six-legged - his very existence is an abomination to all that's decent in the galaxy.  Jumba engineered Stitch as the ultimate fighting machine.  He's abnormally strong, virtually indestructible, smarter than a supercomputer… and very mischievous.  He feels compelled to destroy everything in his path and cannot resist his programming… that is, until he finds the one thing that he has never known before: what it feels like to be part of a family.

Home, sweet home. Stitch was "born" on the planet Turo.

Aloha! Stitch now lives with Lilo a little 7-year-old girl and her sister Nani (19 years old) on the island of Kauai in Hawaii

After-the-film story. Although the reformed Stitch is certainly a softer, gentler creature than the mischievous demon we first meet in the feature, his naughty self can still be summoned up in good and bad situations.  In general, he means to do well; but he's still learning how.  He's naïve, innocent, and speaks to the point; but just like a cute puppy that turns into a digging menace when let loose in the garden, Stitch is still learning the difference between good and bad. 

Stitch's favorite color? Red. (he also likes blue because he is blue).

Stitch's favorite book?  The Ugly Duckling - (reason why - he related to the ugly ducking - he feels lost and can't find a place to fit in.)

But can he sing?  He can hula dance (he learned from Lilo) and play ukulele.

He's undeniably indestructible!  Stitch is bullet-proof, fire-proof and can think faster than super computer. He can see in the dark and move objects 3,000 times his size.

Stitch's favorite meal?  Coconut cake and coffee, but he likes pretty much any kind of food.
