We had prime seats, as always, and practically sat at the edge of the ice floor. Having been to various Disney on Ice shows in the past on account of bringing my nieces and nephews, I was quite sure of what to expect, but clearly I was wrong.
This was sooo much better. They put up a showcase of all the major hollywood films and icons. From the time of the silent movies all the way to the most recent epic of Titanic. Perhaps the skaters are not as world class as the Disney ones (we caught a few falling) but the shows they put up were great. The props, the costumes, the acrobatics were captivating, to say the least.
M and I had a fun time picking out the movies we know. Being such movie buffs and lover of classic movies, between us we picked out Charlie Chaplain, Top Hat (Fred Astire & Ginger Roberts) when they played the song "Dancing cheek to cheek" Casablanca (Ingrid Bergman & Humphrey Bogart), Elvis Presley in "Jailhouse Rock", the massive props and costumes in Dr Zhivago, the theme song & sexy girls were a dead giveaway for James Bond not mentioning the Aston Martin car they brought in as a prop, Moulin Rouge, ET, Starwars, Titanic, the great songs from Dirty Dancing, Footloose and Flashdance. There was only one movie that left us stumped. One with two groups of people and lotsa bats/flies lookalikes, which we later found out was Lord of the Flies.
It was a great night and the audience clearly enjoyed the show although perhaps not many would want to come and see it. The expo hall was only half filled on the Friday that we went. But I'm sure if you were to go, you'd have enjoyed it as throughly as M, I and my in-laws felt.
