Neesa Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 So with the newest ship Odyssey of the Seas appearing soon, what do you think her entertainment will be? Specifically the headline show? Any guesses? Any wishes? Really making an effort to be in a positive mindset today, my teenager wants to go back to school! So sad, I think mama teacher ROCKS!! So can you help me? I would love to see a throwback like " Chorus Line" In addition I would love some great music (bands) maybe a Beatles or Eagles or Styx cover band, sort of like they do at Epcot Eat to the Beat. I'm up for ELO too! Maybe Dennis DeYoung appears, oh boy now I'm showing my age. Let's have fun, standing by.......

Ampurp85 Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I know its a very long shot but The Book of Mormon....or Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Chadster Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Are you suggesting by your thread title that Odyssey be a... FUN SHIP? --- My vote would be for "Phantom of the Opera" or "The Music Man" -- but man, "Hamilton" would be quite the coup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLMoran Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 Bring back Chicago! (the musical, not the band) I was so disappointed when I learned it was being taken away from Harmony (Allure?); was the only thing that was making me consider sailing on an O class ship and going on a more-limited itinerary. Putting it on a Q class would be perfect. That way I maintain my streak of "No O!" Ogilthorpe, DDaley and Neesa 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twangster Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 I think Chicago! was pulled due to complaints about it not being family friendly. All primary entertainment has to be capable of any guest. While they can have shows like Love and Marriage be "adult only" that isn't a primary show on board. It's no easy task finding a show that adapts to a ship, that the content owner will allow to be modified for a ship and that is welcoming to a guest of any age. For a hint of what's to come on Odyssey follow Nick Weir on Twitter. He is responsible for all Royal entertainment (as well as other things on board). He hints at things in his tweets. Read between the lines. "Me and my team decided we need one more!". Ship named Odyssey which has a connection to the Apollo program. Hmmm. Hint at what's to come on Odyssey? Time will tell.

The "inward facing" nature of the O-class ships is one of my biggest problems; I want to see the ocean as much as possible when I'm on a ship. That, along with their sheer size that prevents them from going to more than a handful of destinations, is why I just have no interest in them at this point in time.

Is this just teasing the "Apollo 18" escape room that was formally announced recently? Or do you think they'll have another connection?

DDaley Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 Some of my friends at Pig Pen Theatre Co. produced content specifically for Virgin's Scarlet Lady which would be an awesome option! That way the content they create will fit any guidelines like PG rating, sets, number of actors needed etc. They create awesome folksy musicals where the actors are also the musicians. Please enjoy me as a pirate in their The Old Man and the Old Moon: WAAAYTOOO and JLMoran 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
