SOME KIND OF SPECIAL TRADITION FOR LAS VEGAS !
MORE OF THE SAME THIS YEAR !
NICE TO SEE SOMETHING NEW AND THIS OLD REPORTER HAD NEVER BEFORE SEEN THIS SHOW OR THE MOVIE....ALL NEW TO ME.
OPENING NIGHT A CHALLENGE....... WITH A MAMMOTH CONSTRUCT PROCESS FOR PROPS...MACHINES...WHEELS .....HORNS ...WHISTLES....NOT TO MENTION COSTUMES.
LOTS OF BUMPS IN THE ROAD ON OPENING NIGHT HANDLED VERY WELL BE A FINE CAST AND A.... "WORK IN PROGRESS".... PRODUCTION TEAM.
THE OPENING SONG MIX A REAL ADVENTURE ...FALLING INTO THE... "WHY WRITE LYRICS IF YOU CAN'T DELIVER THEM OVER SOUND AND TECH ISSUES"......? IT GOT BETTER AND THE CONTINUING ISSUES WITH SOUND AT THIS VENUE ARE BEING ADDRESSED AND I THANK THEM FOR THAT ! 2000 PEOPLE LOVED THIS AND IN WHAT IS A PRIME VENUE ON A LOVELY COOL AWAY FROM LAS VEGAS NIGHT......ONLY 16 MILES FROM RAINBOW AND CHARLESTON.......WEST CHARLESTON TO THE VENUE.
A PRETTY GOOFY CHILDRENS STORYLINE BUT FULL OF COLOR...DANCE AND FUN AND I REALLY LIKED IT AND THE UNDERTAKING.
FOUR YEARS IN THE MAKING FOR THE PRODUCTION AND BUILDING THE "MAJOR" MACHINE IN THE PLAY.....AN ENORMUS TASK....MUST HAVE COST TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND I AM SURE IT WILL WORK BETTER THROUGHOUT THE SEASON...IT ACTUALLY FUNCTIONED CREDABILLY ON OPENING NIGHT ALTHO IT DID SCARE ME AND PUT THOUGHTS INTO MY MIND ABOUT "WHAT IFS".....THEY PERSERVERED !
I STILL ENJOYED THIS.....10 YEAR OLD LILY WOLFE WORTH THE TRIP AND WHEN THE LEAD FEMALE IS NAMED "TRULY SCRUMPTOUS"...YOU KNOW THERE FUN IS TO ABOUND !
