Slapstick Studios closed permanently at Innoventions West, with February 4, 2011 given as its last day of operation.

WDWMagic's January 31, 2011 report states the exhibit "will be permanently closing on February 5th 2011 (last day of operation February 4)"; the record uses the last operating day. Wikipedia independently ends the run in 2011 and WDWMagic's Innoventions attraction page lists the exhibit as Closed. A YouTube upload describes the show as closing in "January 2011"; the dated contemporaneous news report is preferred over that.

The exhibit's show, "What's Your Problem?!?", ran as a hosted game show in which guests spun a "Wheel of Seemingly Insurmountable Problems" and had 60 seconds to solve a fastening problem using props made with Velcro brand products, followed by a walk-through gallery of hook-and-loop applications.
