Twas the Night Before Christmas
First National Bank Arena - Jonesboro
It was a wonderful show. We took a 6 year old and a 4 year old. They were mesmerized and loved it. The cast was great and the show was very cute and flowed good. It started very close to the ticket time, and was just long enough that the kids were able to sit still and not get antsy. The only thing I was hoping for that didn't happen was the cast didn't come off stage for a short meet/greet with the kids. They would have liked that.

Best show ever !!
First National Bank Arena - Jonesboro
This was the best Christmas show ever. I took my 10 yr old granddaughter and my sister took her 8 yr old granddaughter & we all loved it. I was disappointed in the low turnout but figures it was because it was the 1st show. I hope they continue to present this show yearly.

Not what I thought
E.J. Thomas Hall - The University of Akron - Akron
Was expecting a real play not a kid show. It was good for what is was but not what I wanted to see. Wife was falling asleep, had to wake her a couple of times.

Disappointing Play
The Santander Performing Arts Center - Reading
I have been going to plays for years at the Santander Performing Arts Center. I was excited to take my granddaughter for her first play. This play was the biggest disappointment out of all the years I have been going. It barely was an hour - there was very little singing and the description and pictures led it to believe that it was a play that younger children would enjoy. My granddaughter obviously did not know the difference as it was her first experience but not only was it not geared enough for the kids, my daughter and I were not entertained like we usually are when attending the plays. And it was not cheap - I paid over $250 for four of us to go and it was by far the shortest play I have attended. I would not recommend this play.

Worse than a high school play
The Santander Performing Arts Center - Reading
Thank goodness I only paid 15 dollars per ticket. The actors and actresses were great and it was a kid friendly show. The quality of props and costumes was so awful. Some of the tickets were 49.50 and I’m so thankful I didn’t spend that much on them. The show was an hour long which I guess was good for the kids but kind of short.

Fun for kids
Tilles Center Concert Hall - Brookville
We were excited that a children's Christmas show was being offered at a local venue. The whole family, all 11 of us, attended. (Grandparents, parents, kids and toddlers.) The children were intrigued by the show. The adults thought the show was a little 'lame.' We were hopping the story would have been based on the poem, The Night Before Christmas, but it went way off that track into a silly story. We would have liked more Christmas songs incorporated into the story, as well. But the kids were happy and we didn't have to travel into the holiday traffic in the city.

Not so great.
Tilles Center Concert Hall - Brookville
Honestly I purchased these tickets for my wife and two children who love to go to shows. They had just recently went to a show a few days before this one in our local town, which she said was much better for more than half the price. My wife was shocked at how poor the show was. The decorations seemed very poor for the price that they were selling the tickets for. Overall she said that she wouldn’t want to go to another show there again. I’m shocked myself.

Not worth it
Tilles Center Concert Hall - Brookville
It was not what I was expecting. The staging was so poorly done. The whole theme of it was just boring, and silly!! I bought 4 of my grandchildren and none of them like it!!
