Either I know nothing about Broadway (which is true) or the songs they used are not exactly modern hits. It was very pretty and enjoyable, but other than West Side Story, I had no idea what anything was from ... We've seen that on EN and/or GR. The songs are not really well known except for West Side Story. We've seen many Broadway shows and it just didn't register with me. Pretty sure they used songs that are part of shows, but just not a major part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra36 Posted December 25, 2023 #131 Share Posted December 25, 2023 The show uses a few songs from Sweet Charity which I am sure most folks have never heard of or seen plus a few from Chicago. which is more recent(?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Charity is a classic! And when we've seen this production show, we thought the dances from it were very well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jodiwinn Posted December 25, 2023 #135 Share Posted December 25, 2023 My son is one of the vocalists onboard. This is his first cruise contract and the first "live" report of Vision while he has been there. To see him in some of the photos is everything to me!! Thanks so much for posting and Merry Christmas!! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Rubyfisch Posted December 25, 2023 Author #139 Share Posted December 25, 2023 I really enjoyed the Christmas show last night, and then went to Christmas Eve dinner in the MDR. Everything was lovely, although I didn't love the dessert - it just wasn't my preference. Other people really liked it.

Rare Rubyfisch Posted December 25, 2023 Author #147 Share Posted December 25, 2023 I bought the entrance only pass to Resort World for $36. You can take the free tram there. I guess my ticket also included a drink, but I had no interest in rum punch at 10 am ...

Rare Rubyfisch Posted December 25, 2023 Author #150 Share Posted December 25, 2023 After I got back, I went up to deck nine and socked in the hot tub for a bit. And watched a small child vomit in the pool ... It was still closed the last time I walked past it .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
