“The Adventures of Conan: A Sword and Sorcery Spectacular” was a live-action stage show that took place at Universal Studios Hollywood from 1983 to 1993. Set in a 2,200-seat indoor theater, it was a thrilling 18-minute attraction similar to other action performances at the park. Loosely inspired by the film “Conan the Barbarian,” the show featured a ruined temple setting filled with treasures. In the storyline, a young Cimmerian named Conan descended onto the stage to loot the temple’s riches. However, his attention was captured by the Dragon’s Eye, a powerful artifact, until an old wizard named Kallias intervened. Kallias revealed that the Dragon’s Eye imprisoned the evil wizard Taras-Mordor, sealed away by Kallias and the Sword of Crom. A moment of intrigue led to Red Sonja freeing Taras-Mordor, setting off a chain of events. Kallias and Mordor engaged in a magical duel, resulting in Mordor destroying Kallias. To defend against the threat, Sonja urged Conan to wield the Sword of Crom, transforming him into a muscular barbarian. Facing formidable opponents, Conan and Sonja emerged victorious. Eventually, Taras-Mordor transformed into a massive 18 foot fire-breathing dragon, but after a fierce battle, Conan managed to defeat the dragon by stabbing it with the Sword of Crom. Placing the Dragon’s Eye back on its altar restored Kallias to life and sealed away the evil wizard once more. The show entertained visitors for a decade before being replaced by Beetlejuice’s Rockin’ Graveyard Revue in 1995.
