MNorris0107 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 My wife's first comment was "Cats, why did it have to be Cats" haha. I've never seen it but she has. lol. Anyways, how is the Oasis of Dreams show? Come fly with me? Frozen in Time? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 I really enjoyed all of the shows - except for Cats. I think you will enjoy them. Cats is actually a very good production. It's just VERY long and to quote my DH, "How much longer do I have to watch a bunch of people in cat costumes slink around the stage ?". We bolted at intermission and did not return as did MANY others. MNorris0107 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 I enjoyed the shows on Oasis, too. Come Fly With me still stands out in my mind as a great show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arebee Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 We made it to the intermission for cats, and seeing other showings a lot of others didn't make it past intermission either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkysAmazingRaceWinner Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 come fly with me is a cirque du solei type show that was really good. the ice show was also well done with a performer that does the entire story of princess and the pea in a light box drawing with sand (hard to visualize i know but it was cool). We also had a guy named "el gaucho" who was like a real life Puss-n-boots that was comedy, guitar, and juggle dancing. thoroughly entertaining for an hour. on our sailing every aqua show was canceled though... boo.

Sadly, the second half is the better part of the show. EmersonNZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christie Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 The aquatheater shows are AMAZING too. MNorris0107 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNorris0107 Posted January 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 It's nice to hear some of the shows are very good! I hear the stand up act is pretty hilarious as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galveston Steve Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Cats was a bunch of very talented singers/dancers in amazing costumes on a great set with a boring script/story. Too bad for the talented cast. However... all of the other entertainment on the ship was amazing! The ice show was incredible, the Aquatheater was so different from anything you will see at sea or anywhere else for that matter. Come Fly With Me was excellent. You will enjoy it all, but I just don't understand why they chose Cats for a cruise ship... one of the rare misses for RCI entertainment.

whitsmom Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 When will we be able to book our shows (we cruise July 16th). This is all new to me, as we never had to before (yes, it's been WAY TOO LONG) as they had 2 shows so that the early dinner crowd saw the show after dinner and the later dinner crowd saw their show before dinner. We have late seating for dinner so I don't even know what time the shows are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have late seating for dinner so I don't even know what time the shows are. You will want to research the available show times once they are available to book. On our Oasis cruise the shows were mostly later, like 8:30 pm or later. The shows repeat, but on different days. They do not have an early show and late show on the same night. If you have late seating it may be difficult/impossible to see the shows unless you book a specialty restaurant or My Time Dining early in the evening or go to the Windjammer buffet. I had to develop a spreadsheet to work out our dining/show schedule for our cruise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take your advise and make me a spread sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
