The Reason You Won't See Off Duty Cast Members

Disney employees are referred to as Cast Members because Walt Disney wanted park visits to feel like an imaginative, cinematic experience where guests are part of the show, with public areas considered "onstage" and restricted areas "backstage," emphasizing the importance of maintaining the immersive environment.

The utilidor system at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World consists of tunnels beneath the park, used for Cast Member movement, transportation of supplies, and other backstage activities.
