jdkbrim Posted March 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I'm not new to cruising, but I am looking to go on a RC cruise for the first time for a different experience. While I would love to try out Oasis or Allure, they are out of my price range. I am looking for recommendations of what non-Oasis/Allure ships have the best entertainment at night. My husband and I prefer shows in the theater (versus comedy, karaoke, piano bars). Edited March 6, 2014 by jdkbrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gayle V Posted March 6, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Of the ships, older than the Oasis, you might look at the Voyager class ships, these would be Explorer, Voyager, Adventure, Navigator Mariner, and those newer than those, are the Freedom, Independence and the Liberty of the Seas (all "of the Seas" of course) . All of these will have the ice skating shows, that are really good. Of those, the Liberty of the Seas is the only one that does a full Broadway show. It is showing the Broadway version of Saturday Night Live. Otherwise, we've always found very good entertainment on all Royal cruise.s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SECdawg Posted March 6, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I vote for Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Freedom usually has the "Now You See It" magic show which is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGetWet! Posted March 6, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Freedom usually has the "Now You See It" magic show which is pretty good. And when they don't have it - well... its because the rest of that phrase is "Now You Don't!" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 2 rock bands that we enjoyed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbw Posted March 6, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Of those, the Liberty of the Seas is the only one that does a full Broadway show. It is showing the Broadway version of Saturday Night Live. I think the show referred to was Saturday Night Fever (think Disco/John Travolta). We have been on Freedom, Liberty and Independence within the last 6 months and enjoyed most of the shows on all 3 ships, with the ice shows being our hands-down favorites. And, of those we thought Independence's ice show was superior, with the intriguing theme centered around a violin. The violinist was superb and the skating absolutely breathtaking. One thing to be aware of, if you go to a matinee performance of the ice show on either Freedom or Indy, you will have an evening without a theater show since those ships schedule an evening ice show in place of a theater show. On Liberty (at least on the 4 day) there were only daytime ice shows and all 4 nights had theater shows. I was pleased that so much entertainment was packed into such a short cruise. That said, I did not care much for the comedian nor the impressionist on Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gayle V Posted March 7, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I think the show referred to was Saturday Night Fever (think Disco/John Travolta). . Oh that made me laugh. You're right, I meant Saturday Night Fever. Of course; my mistake. LOL . Not sure how much like the movie the show is, but should be enjoyable if you liked that era of music.
