david_sobe Posted April 21, 2017 #101 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Very disappointed in the entertainment that was announced. Its average at best. NCL used to have 2 or 3 major acts for their new ships. The ship is very nice but I don't think the entertainment is going to woo many people.

I agree.....they Have Million Dollar Quartet, and After Midnight. They need to bring something like Legally Blonde or Priscilla to this ship. kind of over these blast from the past Broadway shows. But you never know it might be a good show but I wasn't excited reading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted April 21, 2017 #103 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I'm glad 5 o'clock has apparently been retired - the venue never did much for me. Hopefully margaritaville will go too - 3 are more than enough in the fleet. The new Alibi venue sounds intriguing - and I never experienced the Cavern Club on Epic - so excited to see that as well. Personally I think Jersey Boys is a good addition. It's one of those that you can see again and again. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timf2001 Posted April 21, 2017 #104 Share Posted April 21, 2017 No mention of Howl at the Moon .... I was really hoping they would be on the Bliss. Yeah, it sure doesn't sound like there will be room for it unless they place it in a different venue. Alibi will have comedy shows 6 nights a week and a DJ later in the evening. I didn't discover them until the last night of my cruise on Getaway and was looking forward to going back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums On my last Escape cruise a bunch of us went to a couple of the karaoke nights at 5 o'clock, but the venue just felt dark and claustrophobic. I wouldn't have gone on my own for a drink. We did Margaritaville for lunch one day and breakfast another day, but I'd rather see something more in a Pacific Northwest style to suit Seattle and Alaska. I know she'll spend her winters in the Caribbean, but let's do something different. I was on the Epic in 2014. Was the Cavern Club possibly called something else? I'm intrigued by the Alibi venue as well. I'll check out Jersey Boys only in that I've never seen it. For me it'll be fresh.

Rare CoffeeGoddess Posted April 22, 2017 #107 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Select nights in Alibi also will treat passengers to a Prohibition-themed cocktail hour and show. "Happy Hour Prohibition, the Musical" will feature a musical routine by performers in period attire (passengers will be encouraged to dress up, too), while Prohibition-style cocktails are served. The experience will bear a $20 cover charge. That sounds like a lot of fun to me, I hope they do this on our transatlantic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand and Seas Posted April 22, 2017 #108 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'm really looking forward to Jersey Boys. We saw it in Las Vegas and it was lots of fun. I think I could see it a few more times and not get tired of it. The Prohibition night in Alibi sounds like it could be fun too. Can't wait until those first cruisers can tell us more about the Bliss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaylemh Posted April 22, 2017 #109 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Is there going to be a sailing to book on May 3, 2018 from New York to Miami, or is it private invite? I can't see anything for that date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted April 22, 2017 #113 Share Posted April 22, 2017 They can't take passengers between New york and Miami due to the PVSA. A useless act of protectionism that we'll (Congress) never muster the ability to abolish. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you never know it might be a good show but I wasn't excited reading it. The old NCL CEO and Kevin Sheehan spoiled us I believe. The entertainment from Epic and Breakaway was really top notch. This is something I would expect to see on an older Carnival ship or something. No "wow" factor in the entertainment area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atanac Posted April 22, 2017 #116 Share Posted April 22, 2017 A useless act of protectionism that we'll (Congress) never muster the ability to abolish. Couldn't agree more. They could amend the act to exempt passenger vessels with strict restrictions forbidding transportation of cargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R4zb3rry Posted April 22, 2017 #120 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Heard good things about Jersey Boys so also excited to see the live show. I hope NCL can find space for Howl art he Moon as loved the shows on the Escape. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC5240 Posted April 22, 2017 #121 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'm wondering if they're going to convert the Bliss lounge into an area where HATM can be--do we really need two LED clubs now? But then again--I feel like it would make sense for them to have the Bliss lounge on the Bliss haha. Only time will tell.
