simplyerica Posted February 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2016 This is awesome! Sailing on The Getaway in Jan 2017 and my fiance was bummed that Legally Blonde would still be here. He was hoping for something cooler and I think Million Dollar Quartet will fit the bill quite nicely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Bruiser Posted February 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Million Dollar Quartet is likely a better fit for Getaway now that she's headed for Europe. Better global appeal than Legally Blonde, at the very least. I'm also happy I won't have to pay to see the John Hughes musical on Escape. And I'm anxious to know what will be in the dinner theater on Escape now that JH is moving to the Escape Theater. Hopefully something sexy. Just don't mess with my Burn the Floor.

cavok Posted February 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2016 saw legally blonde on getaway a week ago. the production was extremely well done, good cast/singers. but the story is more than cheesy and full of boring stereotypes. the scene where the role, played by a male african american singer, gets asked/is debated about whether he were "gay or european" just about sums it up *lol* - and that was the funny part! yawn... not much of a loss to getaway, IMHO.

Rare BirdTravels Posted February 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 21, 2016 We are booked on the Escape for the second time in May. We had just booked and paid for the For The Record show in the Supper Club a couple of days before NCL announced the change. We also have reservations for the MDQ. We are waiting to see what they do with our reservations and what they put in the SupperClub. At the same time, NCL announced that simultaneous with these changes on 3/05/16, they are discontinuing the Brenda Braxton Cabaret show (so I assume that this is the end of the initial entertainment contracts on the Escape).

Cruz4life15 Posted February 28, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Yeah except not cool for us may 1st sailing which looks like we have a cover show and had little to no knowledge of it until this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeyhead Posted February 29, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 29, 2016 We just sailed Escape last week and saw all three shows. I'm glad I got to see MDQ before it left because it was awesome. Some in my party thought it dragged on a little but I loved the musical history lesson. For The Record was equally great, especially, if you are familiar with movies that are showcased. I'm curious how the show will change on the big stage because in The Supper Club they ran around and in between the table and chairs and I liked that. The food served was not to our liking, so that is a change for the good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seminole1975 Posted February 29, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 29, 2016 We are 90 days out for the May 29 cruise. MDQ is not listed yet to make reservations. It is supposed to start May 15th on the Getaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmbcater Posted February 29, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Still MDQ has not shown up on the 5/15 Getaway cruise to book-anyone got a scoop on when we will be able to book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seminole1975 Posted February 29, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The concierge I am working with said that we would get an email when we can book MDQ. He does not know anything else at this time.We are 90 days out for the cruise on May 29. The first day of the show per the Facebook notification was May 15. Hopefully they will make it available soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyu Posted February 29, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I'm on the cruise for the week of 4/16 to 4/23. I was just able to book After Midnight on 4/18 and The Brat Pack for 4/21 at 7:00 pm. Right now it looks like the 4/21 Brat Pack show is the first time it will be in the Escape Theater.

Seminole1975 Posted March 1, 2016 #16 Share Posted March 1, 2016 MDQ is now available for booking on June 2 and 3rd 2 shows each day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare blackwing Posted March 1, 2016 #17 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Unfortunately I am on the 3/26 Escape sailing, so we are getting After Midnight and the temporary "show" of the a cappella singers. Not too thrilled at the a cappella group, it might just mean more time in the bar for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted March 2, 2016 #18 Share Posted March 2, 2016 The May Escape now has For The Record bookable in the main theater. They are also offering the Supper Club Cabaret on one night (only), two shows. When we were on the Escape last year, Brenda Braxton was in the Cabaret show, but that ends this month.

Sand and Seas Posted March 2, 2016 #19 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I was able to book MDQ today for our June 5th cruise. It was available on two days with two showings on each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted March 2, 2016 #20 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Just booked GA for 2nd time yesterday, and I am thrilled we will get to see MDQ instead of Legally Blond! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detroitlions Posted March 2, 2016 #21 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I think they should incorporate at least one new show per ship. I was not a fan of legally blonde (Cheesy) or burn the floor(Repetitious). Clearly they can make that happen. I dont know I liked Cirque and blue man and some of the broad way stuff but all this magic show, employee acts and comedy stuff is getting old.

Seminole1975 Posted March 2, 2016 #22 Share Posted March 2, 2016 It's such a fun show! I am excited too! Will see it on the cruise leaving May 29th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stsbj Posted March 3, 2016 #23 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Unfortunately I am on the 3/26 Escape sailing, so we are getting After Midnight and the temporary "show" of the a cappella singers. Not too thrilled at the a cappella group, it might just mean more time in the bar for me! We're on the March 12th sailing, so it looks like we will not be able to see either the MDQ or the John Hughes show. I really hope that the a cappella group is good.
