Details on the RO Folklore Show?

[englit]

Does anyone out there have some specific details for the RO Folklore Show? What time is the performance? Where is it held? How long does it last? Can you take photos? Do they have cossack dancers? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Ed,
Are you doing this through RO? The price seemse very reasonable.
Thanks,

When we toured with RO last summer, we elected not to go to the folklore show. We hit terrible traffic on the way to Peterhof, and were therefore delayed getting back to the ship. People going to the folklore show were just leaving, and we would have had no time to eat dinner or change our clothes.

With two long (wonderful) days of sightseeing, we need a little down time, a quiet evening, and an early bedtime--although I'm usually a night owl.

Hi Andee:

We are going on the Grand next week. I didn't book the Folklore Show yet. I as torn about booking with RO which we are doing for 2 days or the Princess. It is too late now for the Princess, but I can do it when I get on board. Do you think it is really worth it? It is really a tight schedule. We also will be returning to the ship at 6:30 and they leave at 7:15. Just in time to grab a bite and wash up. What do you think?

thanks
Roz
