Looking for a sweat dripping, heart pounding, heavy breathing (legal) experience??Come to Viva…read moreDance! Soooo glad that Groupon did not let me down...for once...and introduced me to this awesome studio. Let me be clear, I've only taken their Zumba classes here, so this is not to review all the other classes they have. I have taken classes with Sara and the tiny little tattooed Polish girl....both are really fun instructors, upbeat music, intense cardio, lots of screaming and and a decent crowd. The classes are about 20-30 ppl depending on the night, a mixed age group and the steps are not difficult to pick up. The studio is located in a tiny little plaza next to a Burger King....resist the temptation to go into the BK. Inside the studio is very spacious, lots of mirrors, disco ball is on and strobe lights, so overall a great ambiance. The only reason I'm deducting a star is because I experienced the front desk lady not honor someone's Groupon bc they were a current member and was quite rude. The print on the Groupon did not say anything about having to be a new member and did not even honor what she paid for the Groupon, which seems ridiculous. I'm glad I did not have that experience myself, but really felt for the lady who was now out $40. Apparently they always have facebook specials...for all types of members and if not regularly drop in classes are only $12.

TDN you are a challenge…read more As the parent of a student who went there for three years, I've had ups and downs with this place. The instructors seem to truly care, but our last two lacked discipline and classes can sometimes get rowdy. Quieter children, like mine, are in the shadow of louder kids who do a lot of whatever they want. Many guardians hang out in the lobby, but unlike other dance studios, there is no attempt to make a community of parents. The lobby in this location could also use a good deep clean. Songs and routines are fun and the kids are in to them. This is the good stuff. The location is also killer if you live in Lawrenceville. The recitals here are mixed. In some ways they are very fun. The first one we had at TCNJ went off without a hitch. The last two haven't been as smooth, and the practice for this last recital was a joke. They were incredibly disorganized, there was nothing for young kids to do backstage, and my wife waited for a while for a parent to show up. None did so she just hung out backstage for pretty much the whole rehearsal. At the end of the day, this is a decent dance studio. If you're not taking things too seriously and you're looking for a convenient location, you probably won't go wrong here. That said, we've had experience with a number of places, and this one wasn't exactly on the top of our list. As convenient as it was, we ultimately decided not to come back. This may or may not end up working for you.

Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol returned to the McCarter after a three year Covid hiatus to prove…read moreonce again that this 19th century rebuke of Industrial Age ruthlessness and eventual redemption can still surprise and enlighten. In the current interpretation, directed by Lauren Keating, casting for many of the main characters has been made more inclusive and in several roles, "re-gendered" as female - including Mr. Scrooge himself (Dee Pelletier.) As a result, the sharp elbows and volatility of a classic George C. Scott or Albert Finney Scrooge seemed far more muted, especially as the staging was less lavish than in previous productions. And I don't know if the urban contemporary dance number at the end and the "updating" of several key scenes (Tiny Tim becomes a veterinarian??) was entirely necessary but It just goes to show that live theater is always intriguing and that a story you think you know by rote can still surprise. Not since Rod Serling's Carol For Another Christmas turned this venerable chestnut into an anti-war sermon has a version demanded full audience attention. Five stars for challenging my expectations. The McCarter remains a treasure.

Went to see The Woman in Black . I am a huge fan of the novel and have seen the movie. The movie…read morewas not that good. This version has as we might put it , issues. There is a narrative frame- device- that I found rather irritating. The protagonist is an old man who hires an actor to tell the story. This is over done and should be cut down. The first act is rather dull. It does come alive in the second act and redeems itself.Hence I wound up enjoying the play. If I were directing and I could take liberties , I 'd try to bring it more in line with the book. If it isn't scary it isn't anything. Too much dithering in the first part of the play.The actors , in challenging roles, did yeoman work. On the theater itself, the seats are very uncomfortable. It has a nice bar. You can park for free at nearby garage.
