James Arnold Taylor’s Voice Acting Spectacle Shines at Star Wars Weekend
During Star Wars Weekend 2015 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the Theater of the Stars hosted one of the event’s most popular panels: Obi-Wan and Beyond. Starring the incredibly talented James Arnold Taylor, this Star Wars voice acting show is more than a panel—it’s a one-man stage performance that offers fans an unforgettable deep dive into the world of voice acting.
This blog features the full Obi-Wan and Beyond video, showcasing Taylor’s incredible range as he brings over 200 iconic characters to life. From Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: The Clone Wars to Fred Flintstone, and even Johnny Test, Taylor offers a fun-filled, fast-paced journey through his incredible career. The 2015 show took full advantage of its new home at Theater of the Stars, with an expanded stage and screen to complement the energy of the performance.
If you’ve never seen Taylor live, you’re in for a treat. Part stand-up, part motivational speech, and entirely entertaining, Obi-Wan and Beyond gives a glimpse into what it means to be a modern voice actor. Through character transitions, impersonations, and anecdotes from his time in the business, Taylor keeps fans of all ages laughing and inspired.
Why This Star Wars Voice Acting Show Stands Out
This performance was one of three theater shows hosted by James Arnold Taylor during the 2015 event, alongside Star Wars Rebels and Stars of the Saga. I attended the first weekend and had my camera ready to capture it all.
Whether you’re a die-hard Star Wars fan, an animation buff, or someone who just enjoys a great show, Obi-Wan and Beyond hits all the right notes. This Star Wars voice acting show is a rare opportunity to witness the magic behind the mic. Check out the full video and join me in celebrating the talent behind the voices we love.
