I am truly so glad I got to experience this festive masterpiece. From the moment the curtain went up, the production was pure holiday magic! The set, the dazzling lights, and the powerful live band were incredible. Major kudos to all the unseen heroes behind the scenes--the stagehands, lighting designers, and choreographers. Every single detail was so meticulously crafted and flawlessly executed! The Cast and the Heart But the cast... wow! I've never witnessed such a large ensemble be so flawlessly in sync with each other. As someone with a background in theatre, I was actively counting beats as each performer hit their mark--it was a true masterclass in ensemble precision! What truly touched my heart was the moment the ensemble chose to honor our vets--the genuine respect and beautiful fashion in which they did it was unlike anything I have ever seen on stage! It's a moment of profound gratitude and connection. Behind the Scenes Dedication Even during intermission, the spirit of excellence continued! Every usher and server handled the busy crowds heading to the snack bar and bathrooms with such pride and professionalism. It's truly wonderful to see a team execute their jobs with such care. A special note: while this is Ann-Carol Pence's last time performing, she remains an intricate and cherished part of the company and isn't going anywhere! Her legacy shines brightly throughout the show. I had the most incredible, heartwarming night out! A huge thank you to @auroratheatre for the gracious invite.

I saw deeply discounted tickets on travel zoo and thought this would be a nice date out with my…read morehusband. It is a tent set up in the fairgrounds and it s very small venue. It is $5 to park. We chose seats 3 rows back at the end of an aisle thinking we would have a good view only to have a huge tent support structure almost in direct view of our aisle seat. After going back to look at the seating chart, we noticed a small square that represented this pole, but there was no legend indicating that that was a huge pole blocking your line of sight. (See pic) Concessions has no pricing, you have to ask about each item. Large popcorn and a bottle of water was $13 which is about average, I suppose, but you could put out some signs. Now for the good news! The performers were really great! The water show part was different and very beautiful. I think this would be most enjoyable for families with children. There is comedy relief in between the acts with cheesy clowns. Don't pay a lot for your ticket though. Definitely look for a discount somewhere. Google and find cheap tickets and enjoy yourself.

This was the most bizarre circus I've ever been to, hands down…read more I'm a huge Cirque du Soleil fan, so when I heard a Cirque Italia was in town, I was intrigued. The website and the fact that they had free kids tickets at Del Taco should've been a sign to me that this wasn't going to be top-notch. But I found a good deal on Goldstar and figured it'd be entertaining enough for a Friday night date night. Cirque Italia was set up in the parking lot of the Gwinnett County fairgrounds, and the tents resembled a small Cirque du Soleil. So far, so good. When we walked into the tent we realized that the "climate control" was just one heating unit in the corner. It was FREEZING inside! I put on my best game face and settled in for the show. The entertainment was so underwhelming I found myself yawning and struggling to stay awake about 20 minutes in. Sure, the performers had talent, but the weird music and choreography was so off-putting. The theatrics were so over the top, it was like watching a terrible soap opera. The clown that performed every 10 minutes in between acts was so, so irritating. I wanted to like this circus so badly, but it was just a train wreck.

Not my style but when I feel disrespected something has to be done…read more I never checked to see reviews or anything about this school and to my surprise the feeling is shared. My wife (thank god, deals with schools and so on but last week when I went to see my daughter in practice after 1 hour or so I had something to take care of out the school and was to go back and pick up my daughter. My wife told me Lori Zamzow is the owner and I went over to let her know that my daughter would miss 2 shows on the 20th and 21st because I had booked in April a family trip to celebrate her 15th birthday. She did not even let me start talking, She ignored me and said to talk to Brooke Burgess (School Director) I said, I was told it was going to be difficult and they both looked at each other but I still went to talk to Burgess. I let her know that my daughter would be missing 2 shows me thinking is the right thing to do but nope, what a mistake, Burgess had no idea on what to do and went back to Lori Zamzow. She came over and told me about the commitment and all on the contract and I said, I understand but when the trip was made I chose the dates I did base on last years show dates (picture of last year schedule attach) She said to me that I need to cancel the trip I said I cant. told me to get my money back, I said impossible. Told me of the contract and I said I understand but I cant re-schedule this trip, ships don't leave at my convenience and I already had made a payment back in April for over 10k. At the end of the conversation I did say that the situation was making my blood boil and I took full responsibility for booking this trip thinking school would be over by the 18th but no, It did not work out that way. After almost 4 years committed to making sure this company gets paid on time, credit card on file for automatic payments and my wife taking my kid there and me after work picking her up what did Lori Zamzow do? she told Brooke Burgess like 20 min after I left the school to call me and she said, can you cancel that trip? Can you get a refund? can your reschedule? NO NO NO, this is a bully that barks because they know they have are kids there and they know how to crush them. She kicked my daughter out of: The Nativity Ballet show The NUTcracker show and all company pieces and future performances . Also, kicked her out her company beginning the next evening Nov 21st. I can understand being charged the $300 dollars If my daughter wanted to quit company, but all of the above looks very personal to me. Someone there also made a treat via email to send my account (1000% on time payments) to collections. what? Email is also attached. To my point, Bully and bark and keep talking and treating people the way you do, The only reason I don't yank my kid out of there is because from something this sad she said to me that she likes her teachers and friends. She will learn soon that when you are a paying client is true that customers are not always right, being a business owner my self, I would never treat someone like that. I told my daughter that this will make her stronger, because if for having a father that wanted to do the right thing and for this company to treat my daughter like that is unacceptable. My understanding is that many parents have pulled there kids out, I want out but my kid at 14 has no idea what a bully is, I do. I will keep supporting my kid no matter what and one last thing, care full if English is not your first language, Some there act like they cant understand you and for some sick sad reason they think is funny. Can you relate ?
