Guests are seated in a movie theater-like room, The "Space Traffic Control" room, and children are encouraged to sit up front, on the floor, so that Stitch can see them during the show. When the host of the "Space Traffic Control" requests the computer to search for an available spacecraft captain to talk to, the computer connects to Stitch's spacecraft. After that, guests (both children and adult) in the "Space Traffic Control" room are chosen to chat with Stitch. Stitch can both interact with guests and take their pictures. A hidden cast member supplies Stitch's voice and controls his animation, allowing the character to talk and interact with guests. The "animated" character looks and moves much like he does in the movie, complete with corresponding facial expressions and gestures. The conclusion of the show occurs when the audience aids Stitch in his escape from Captain Gantu.
