VASTLY Overrated.... my son was heartbroken!
by krysdorf on 4/9/11Cintas Center - CincinnatiMy son is the biggest fan of Thomas the Train I know. I purchased tickets - quite expensive tickets - so that our entire family could attend. We were all looking forward to this event and drove 2+ hours each way with an expectation of fun and excitement for everyone! We were exceedingly disappointed!! The sound was barely audible with all of the kids talking out of boredom. A kids show should be loud and bright and sucking them in with all of the music and excitement... this was a fail in that department. Then, to top it off, they stop the show in the middle and had a ridiculously long intermission. We were actually ANGRY that the show was so incredibly short and disappointing, not-to-mention expensive!! They could have at least had picture-taking opportunities after the show with some of the characters (i.e.- the 'trains', or maybe Sir Topham Hat) to try and make up for how short it was! We were sooooo sad to see our son's face and to hear him ask us after all of that, "Is that all???" I want my money back!
