Lord of the Dance Tickets

Very disappointed that the all the music was canned. Costumes seemed to be outdated and not something I would have expected for this caliber of a performance. The vocal performer was NOT good at all. By the third time she came on, much of the audience sighed/groaned. I had seen the show Riverdance about 11 years ago and was enthralled. My boyfriend went with me to this show, and I was hoping it would compare - not even close. I almost wished I had not told him about it, since this was an early birthday gift. Overall, I would not go again and most certainly would advise others to spend their money else where.

excellent. The show was exciting. Verry fast moving.

This was our first time seeing a show like this and how amazing it was!!! We will definitely go see this show when it is in town again. I really enjoyed everything about it and my husband and daughter also loved it!!! They thanked me all night for getting tickets!

We have seen Lord of the Dance several times and always love the dancing, and this production was no exception - spectacularly talented dancers. The male lead was the most personable and engaging of any we've seen, and the woman playing the pixie-like flutist was outstanding also. The two female leads were great dancers but lacked appeal and charisma. The story line seemed thinner than usual, less drama in the conflict between good and evil.

I had seen Riverdance many years ago with Michael Flatley. This show was just as amazing. How do they get their feet to move like that?!

What a fun show! I would recommend that any one go see it - however you might not want to take children. There are a few seductive/sexual parts of the show ex: the women rip their dresses off and are dancing in their bra and panties. But overall a very good, fun show! I was waiting for the men to rip their shirts off so it would be fair for the women to enjoy that part of the show.. but it never happened. Didn't really like the singer... She had an ok voice but I think 1 song would have been enough. The violisits were so fun!

Wonderful performance. Had me smiling for 2 hours.

Excellent show - stunning visuals, electrifying violinists and the dancers were obviously having a great time. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!!

Have seen the show years before. Even better this tme. Lots of fun.

As I begin this review, know that I wanted to give the show the best review that I could. In other words, the most honest review possible. I wanted to say that the dancing, for the most part was very good. The two lead male and female roles danced wonderfully, true professionals. With exception; I place the lead male (good guy) and lead female (bad girl) dancing roles as exceptionally superb! Now for the not so good. I thought the some of the story of the River Dance was lost in some (not all) different or odd costumes. I was looking for more of that Irish old country, magic, myths and legends… Also, the lead vocal was just OK, not great and not bad either. So, If you have not seen this show, go see it. For me, unless it gets revamped, I will consider it as "I've seen it" and move on.

AWESOME!!! Wish I had bought front row tickets. Took my 2 kids (under 10) and they LOVED it!! Can't wait to see again. Best show I have EVER seen.

My wife and I love to go to Irish dancer types of events and have been to River Dance, Spirit of the Dance, and Celtic Woman on more than one performance. We both thoroughly enjoyed "Lord of the Dance" in many ways. Similar to the others I mentioned, but delightfully different in many other ways as well, so much so that it definitely has it's own unique persona. If Lord of the Dance returns to the Raleigh-Durham area, we will be in attendance! We highly recommend Lord of the Dance!

Members of the Lord of the Dance troupe can dance! They're very skilled and capable of so much more than the Busby Berkeley-inspired geometric choreography and tired, cliche-filled plotline delivered. Isn't dancing what this is all about? Tied down by hopelessly outdated strong-man / delicate-woman stereotypes in characters & costumes, the athletic, precise dancing was lost in a muddle of kiddie-level story featuring a war between good & evil, a fool with fairy dust & magic wand, and hero divided between temptress & virtuous maiden. Ugh. Please--do the dancers & audience a favor and dump the plot & costumes. Just let them dance!! That's what we come (and pay) to see. The other stuff is annoying, distracting & boring.

I've wanted to see Lord of the Dance for a while and I even watched the performance on youtube. However, being there in the theater just makes the experience a lot better. You can see the athleticism of the performers, feel the sound and the beat, and enjoy it with fellow event goers. I was a bit disappointed with the dubbing of tap shoes (I know it's for effect, but it was over the top and some times the performers would be completely out of sync with the sound) and it did detract from the event a little. I would still recommend seeing the show though.

My mom and I attended this show in March and were so displeased with it that we left at intermission. It was repetitive and each dance seemed prolonged to the extent that you were eager for them to end. I would not recommend this show. Riverdance was a much better all around experience if you're looking for a show of this type.

I was extremely disappointed. I thought that I would be seeing Michael Flatly. The billboards before the event, as far as I noted, did not say it would be a dance company and not Mr. Flatly. The lead dancer was good but there was absolutely no comparison with Mr. Flatly. Also, there were no playbills distributed and both myself and my companion really didn't know what the story line of the dance was. It seemed to be a cross between Spaceballs and Swan Lake! Anyway, next time I will read the VERY FINEST PRINT of any event advertising. I was very glad I didn't pay for more expensive seats as then I would have been REALLY TICKED OFF!

The dancers are fantastic. That's what the show is all about, and it delivers in that regard. But the numbers by a beautiful female singer are difficult, due to serious pitch problems. Surely, they could do better! But the main problem is the sound. It's so loud, I'll bet sustained exposure would be in the range that could cause hearing damage. Somebody needs to tell the engineer to TURN IT DOWN!

Was it really necessary for the volume (BASS) of the music to be that high. The women singer was off key. I know its Durham not New York, but the men dancers were good. I almost walked out.

I had been looking forward to this event with my wife and we were seriously disappointed. Not only was there no orchestra, simply music played over speakers, but several of the dance numbers the dancers were "tap-synching"... similar to lip synching where a singer is singing along with pre-recorded vocals. Well tap synching is the same but they're dancing along with pre-recorded tapping. I thought I was imagining things, but we were sitting in the 6th row and it was clear that the timing was a bit off in spots. I was amazed. I was disgusted. Sure, some of the dance numbers were "live" but why not all of them? The grand finale was fantastic and if the rest of the show had been anywhere near that entertaining we'd have been thrilled. Also, the over-acting of the leads was just silly. If you've ever seen Trans Siberian Orchestra and rolled your eyes at it, this was similar. The tap-synching though was the biggest turn off. I will not see this show again and I will make sure all friends and family hear my thoughts on it.

The show was fantastic. Excellent dancers and cool visuals. Definitely recommend!
