We're off to Orlando in a few weeks and we're thinking about taking in a show, but thought i'd asked around and see if anyone has been, they have a deal on for kids right now, and being that we're bringing 4 outta six, the youngest is free.....a deal is always a plus, but it's still going to cost us 300.00 US which is 367.00 CA...that's alot for a show we know nothing about, other than the website reviews, which of course are really good :tongue:

    i have seen them live. it was a good time and your kids will really enjoy it. one suggestion, try to get a seat facing the stage from the front view. we were off to the side and even though it was super cool, a front view would have been even cooler.

    how many times did i just say 'cool'? :indifferent:

    Let me preface this by saying my Dad is CHEAP. CHEAP. Am I making it clear? He is SUPER DUPER CRAZY CHEAP. (insert examples here: free samples given as Xmas gifts, leftover garage sale "finds" that didn't sell on Ebay given as B-day presents, the list is long)

    He saw them in Vegas, paid $100/seat, and came out of it saying that he would see it again. (!!!!!!):noway:

    If that isn't the best review of all time, IDK what could be.

    These are the kinds of things kids will remember forever! It's fun, it's funky, and yes, it's cool!

    We took the kids to see Cirque de Soliel (sp?) when we were in Florida, and even the "snotty-too cool for everything" moody teenage boy we have was openmouthed in awe.

    I have been twice, however If my memory serves me correctly , and it usually does, they use the F word a few times. in a small short video that they show...

    other than that i think your kids are old eough they have probably heard it 1/2 a million times.... but just to let you know... some people are sensitive about things like that where I tend to say "they hear and probabaly say worse on a daily basis!

    its all up to you... but in seeing the show twice, I agree with Heather get middle seats AND they ROCKED! it was fun, I enjoyed it so much i went to see another show...

    I want to go see them!!!! I grew up in Tampa so my friends and I would always take day trips to orlando. I've done pretty much every thing there is to do there other than seeing blue man group and cirque du soleil. I've only heard good things about them, you should go!

    I also saw then in Vegas and it was awesome!!! sit in the front row if you can!! tickets were cheaper there than they were sitting farther back. they say you may get splashed, and they advise you to wear a poncho that they provide for you, but i never got splashed once and it was AWESOME!!! have fun!

    I had no interest in seeing it, but my husband ( boyfriend at the time!) insisted it was great and we should go. (he'd already been a couple of times.) I wasn't too thrilled that we were going... but it did not dissappoint!!!! It was a fantastic show. Yes the tickets were pricey, but we had a blast!

    I was reading one of the comments that was already posted, and it said that she remembers them saying the "F word" a couple of times...I do NOT remember that. It doesn't mean it wasn't there...I just remember thinking it was a really clean, fun show that you could even take the kids to. ( It was also about 6 or 7 years ago that I went, so maybe it has changed?) Good luck! Have fun!
