The Price Is Right Live - Stage Show Tickets

... and with that being said, it was more like a "Been There, Done That" moment. Sure, it was fun, but if it comes around again I'd probably pass. Please bear in mind this has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that I didn't get called, it was just kinda "hokey".

The Price is Right was great fun! Unfortunately, many fans were disappointed that the Stage Show did not include Drew Carey and was much different than the TV Show. I would suggest if going to this event, to read the rules, game requirements, etc. to avoid disappointment!

Considering that the Venue collected at least a quarter million in ticket revenue on the weekend, not to mention sales of merchandise and the associated gambling and other revenue streams, to give away such pitifully small prizes is frankly inexcusable. The host was great (very funny), the announcer was okay, some of the contestants stole the show, but they could have really put up a lot more for prizes. And don't get excited about being called up. In a venue of 2046 people, there was less than a 1% chance of being called, and then you only get one shot so it's a one-in-four chance of making it to the stage, and THEN you have to contend with the odds of actually winning the game on stage.

I thought it would be a little more like the original show. It was strange that if you spun the highest on the wheel you won $250 that's it, you didn't make It to the show case. The show case was the highest level of dissipointment, I didn't like the fact that the only way you could win all the prizes is if you were within $100 of the price. And it was sad that they wouldn't let anyone take pictures because they wanted to make $20 taking the picture for you in front of the wheel. That's a little expensive for a picture.

The show was better this year than when Jerry Springer hosted it a few years ago at the Riverrock casino in Richmond, but still nothing can beat being at the original show in California. They did not do the showcase show down correctly, it was random selection. Also, to participate in the show, the line up was way too long and went on for hours around the block and it was a very warm day so it's hard on seniors and people with young kids plus you couldn't use the washroom because they're not allowed to open the doors early and the restaurant next door denied access also, so you would have to walk 2 blocks to use the washroom at 7/11 or the Sushibox restaurant (good sushi btw). To avoid the long line, they should allow sign up to be a contestant at the time of purchase of the tickets and then you fill out whatever info they needed online and just pick up the name tag on the day of the event, then the line up wouldn't be an issue just get your name tag at the box office and go instead of standing around to get your turn to fill out information to receive a name tag for a 1 in 400 chance of being selected.

We waited over one hour in cold weather to get what - CHEAP NAME TAG AND PIECE OF PAPER TO WRITE YOUR NAME AND THEN DROP IN A BIG BIN OR BOX FOR DRAWING LATER AT THE SHOW. The production company is using 1950's technology, this needs to be updated. We had to show up 3 hours prior to the event that could have been done on the computer or at the time the ticket was purchased or even at the front door. Again we received a cheap name tag and a piece of paper. The experience got worse as we now had two hours before the theatre opened its doors, every restaurant and bar in the small town of Waukegan was filled with too many people for service. That's left two decisions: 1) Leave and pay parking twice or 2) Sit in the car or stand outside until the doors opened. We decided to sit in the car, wow that was fun! The show itself was average and the prizes were cheap. Theatre was booked to capacity, your chances of being picked were VERY VERY SLIM. This was not a good experience and NOT worth the time and money spent. Why get there 3 hours early and then wait for a low probability of being called "Come on Down" to win a cheap prize or no prize. Also, you must be within $100 to win the big prize, fat chance of that happening to very many people. Save your money for something else. Spend your Price is Right money at the casino.

This show was so much fun! The atmosphere made me feel as if I was part of the real Price is Right with Drew Cary. Only disappointment was I did not have the opportunity to "come on down" but I was lucky enough to win A Bed, Bath & Beyond gift card. If this show ever appears again in the chicagoland area my spouse & I will definitely buy tickets.

If you love watching the Price is Right, this is a great experience just to say you've done it! It is definitely not the real show, but it was still enjoyable. The main way it differs from the real show is that new contestants are called for each activity (including a random drawing for the showcase showdown at the end). They hire various celebrities to host the game. Ours was am actual game show host from the GSN, but I can't remember his name. Im only giving the show three stars because it was WAAAAAAAY too short! Only one person really won something, and that was just a trip to Vegas. I thought we were having an intermission when the show ended! Lol. They could do so much more, but it was still very cool. They also give out random small Giftcards (ex: $25 Amazon Giftcards) and show video footage of old price is right shows to entertain the audience while transitioning to a different pricing game. Overall, it was nice experience... But way too short of a show & too different from the real show for us to feel lIke paying to come again.

They do a great job with making it a very fun experience. Like that they picked new contestants every time to allow for more of a chance to be on stage but not impressed with the prizes. Very disappointed with the showcase showdown. The loser got $250 and winner got a motorized bike. I think they should have a better prize for the winner if you are going to give out $250 just for playing

My daughters and I had a great time at the show. We had arrived early & I felt the event ran very smoothly from signing up to be a contestant to waiting to be let in for the actual show. The show itself was so exciting, although we weren't called to "come on down" we played along from our seats and would have walked away with a lot of prizes if we'd been called. LOL. Loved the fact that there were so many contestants and gifts cards given out after every game that was played. Would love to see it come back next year - or - sooner....

I was expecting a lame theater version of the real show, but was pleasantly surprised! I did not register or get a name tag, so I was not able to come on down or win any audience prizes. Be sure to stand in line and register! Despite that, the audience was rowdy and fun. They came in team shirts and other outrageous baubles. The announcer and host were excellent. The games/props were just like the TV version. The prizes were quality as well.

Fantastic show! The crowd was alive! The Host and announcer were great with interacting with the audience. Great show!

We had a really good time even though we weren't called. I like the way that they call the contestants so that it gives more people an opportunity to win. Be forewarned that this is not the TV show and that there are no cameras, Drew is not at this show. We definitely would do this again. Nice venue and it was packed!! (3,300 people from what we heard).

Not impressed with the Price is Right Live show. I have been to the real show in California and although the games where similar, the way in which the contestants came up where not. Maybe it was to allow more opportunities for contestants, but they decided to have 4 new contestants come up every time a new game was played. Even the showcase showdown was all new contestants. It was very loud and difficult to hear the show from our seats. If you are planning on attending, make sure you get to the venue 3 hours prior to the show in order to be considered a contestant. Not a whole lot of fun otherwise!

This sold out show was full of energy and fun. The only problem was that we were told to get there 3 or 4 hours early if we wanted to be registered to participate or win. We weren't able to get there that early, so when we did arrive, we went right to our seats. As we were sitting there waiting for he show to begin, we saw a sign saying that registration is now closed! Too bad they didn't make it known that we could have registered that late. Look for registration no matter when you get there -- you'll have more fun thinking they might call your name!

Too much idle useless time wasting between games. Would have liked to see more games. Hosts. Need better dialog!

We were very disappointed with our experience. Goes without saying that we never expected to be chosen. No problem with that. But to have to show up THREE hours early just to get a name tag & put a card in the hopper was insane. Then, we had to leave for well over an hour just to come back in to the same theater! IF there was all kinds of places open on Genesee Street to patronize that may be something different.... The show itself was ok. Good that they spread chances out to more people considering how large the theater is. Nice to see games everyone was used to. WWAAAAYYY too much money spent for this event.

Celebrated my Mom's birthday at the Price is Right Live show at the Genesee Theater. It was a blast! We loved it! We wished we would have been picked to be a contestant, but still it was a lot of fun!

This show was amazing! It was better than I could have expected. Even though I was not chosen to be a contestant, I had a blast and was on the edge of my seat all night.

I took my mom and we both had a blast. It was real fun trying to help contestants with the bids.
