elou Posted February 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2013 To me, the most important thing on a cruise is the production shows at night. I know the guest entertainers change. After seeing the fantastic shows on Oasis and Allure, any suggestions which other ships that sail from Ft. Lauderdale are really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing the fantastic shows on Oasis and Allure, any suggestions which other ships that sail from Ft. Lauderdale are really good. The Allure and the Oasis do have the best shows that we have ever seen on a ship. I can not think of any that compare. Maybe the NCL Epic? I have been told the ship has very good entertainment. Not sure if it sails from FLL. We are booked on the NCL Breakaway from NY. It will have entertainment comparable to the Allure and Oasis. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaflamingo Posted February 27, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 27, 2013 We did Freedom (not from Ft. Lauderdale though) and thought the entertainment was pretty good. Nothing can compare to Allure or Oasis, but it was pretty good. Seems the bigger the ship the better the entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted February 27, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 27, 2013 The Liberty out of Ft Lauderdale is a great ship!!! It has Saturday Night Fever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seacruise9 Posted February 27, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hi, I have cruised aboard the Allure of the Seas and recently returned from a cruise on the Liberty of the Seas (out of Ft. Lauderdale). I agree with the above comment that the Liberty of the Seas has excellent entertainment. The production shows (Saturday Night Fever and In the Air) were great and the ice show was incredible. I have sailed aboard this ship twice and greatly enjoyed both cruises.

GXmanDC Posted February 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I hope Quantum and Anthem get Broadway-style shows. With Kristin Chenoweth serving as Godmother to Quantum there has been speculation that Wicked could be in the works. I'd love to see Wicked on Quantum.

karmacats Posted February 28, 2013 #7 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I think Liberty of the Seas' shows are the closest to Oasis' and Allure's. In the Air is basically the same show, there's an ice show, and Saturday Night Fever is the same scale as Hairspray (I thought Hairspray was better, but that might just be my taste in music/musicals :) ). The evening shows are really important to me, too, and a major factor in why I haven't gone on another cruise lately. Saving up for Allure, as I've already been on Oasis and Liberty, and the shows on the other ships seem to be the typical "revue"-type performances which don't float my boat, so to speak.

loudbmw Posted February 28, 2013 #9 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We want Grease on the Quantum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul65 Posted February 28, 2013 #10 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We want Grease on the Quantum. As long as they have a Johnny Rocket's, you'll be all set with that. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vondofife Posted February 28, 2013 #11 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We feel exactly the same. Having been on both Oasis and Allure we really wanted to try another ship, but wanted one with Broadway quality shows. After much research we decided to book the new ship by NCL called Getaway which will launch in Jan 2014. It will sail from Miami and follow an Eastern Caribbean route all year round. They have still to announce which Broadway show will be on board, but her sister ship (NCL Breakaway which launches April 2013) will have Rock Of Ages Broadway show and Cirque Dreams, a Cirque Du Soleil type show. Getaway will be similar. NCL Epic has Blue Man Group and Cirque Dreams. Hope this helps. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoosh21 Posted March 1, 2013 #13 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Book of Mormon Probably too expensive to buy those rights, but I would expect another Broadway show. It will just need to be something that can be edited down to 90 minutes without gutting too much. BTW, the very next ship I went on after Oasis was Celebrity Xpedition. So I went from the Biggest to the Smallest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
