Example of a showtape.

Status: Partially Lost

Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza Time Theatre is a restaurant chain started in 1977.

At Pizza Time Theater and any other animatronic restaurant chain, the programming for the characters, the lighting effects, video footage, and the show's audio were stored on showtapes (or as of recent showdisc).

These usually contained skits and/or songs sung by the animatronic characters on stage.

Fate

It is rumored that most showtapes were recycled somewhere or destroyed due to them being labeled as obsolete. However, collectors have archived as many tapes as possible.

It is unknown if any of the lost ones will ever be uncovered due to their unknown fate.

On April 2nd, 2016, a YouTube channel by the name of Pizza Time Theatre uploaded a majority of Pizza Time Theater's library of showtapes. Just about all Pizza Time Theater Shows were made available to the public, and to this day remain that way.
