Rare aussielozzie18 Posted August 22, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2014 No, I am not referring to the acts themselves (although some of the comedians...). What I mean is do you find sitting in the theatre (which is at the front of the ship and down low) makes you feel a bit motion sensitive? I never felt seasick as such but I definitely felt the motion, particularly when watching movies on the big screen in the theatre. (I would imagine that this may not be the case for the bigger ships such as the Oasis or the Allure as the theatres would be in various locations?).

shipgeeks Posted August 22, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2014 No. If you are watching the performer/s, any movement on the stage is at the same rate as in the audience, so there is nothing to feel different from a theater on land. And most of the time there is no significant movement in the ship anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimnbigd Posted August 22, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Sitting waiting for the show to start, sometimes I'm a little bothered by the curtain swaying. Edited August 22, 2014 by Jimnbigd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayenu Posted August 22, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Yes, at times felt the motion, being out in the Pacific, or North of Polar Circle. Once a show was cancelled and the pool was drained for safety concerns. Sometimes felt the motion in the restaurant(s) that was located at the end of the ship. Buffet is on top, occasionally had to move from column to column for support ;) No, I don't drink, at least not at breakfast/lunch time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancinman66 Posted August 22, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Not queezy. But others were on many occasions even on the big ships. Just doesn't move as much like to top you out of a chair or that sort if movement Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taglovestocruise Posted August 22, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 22, 2014 But wouldn't your body (inner ear?) possibly feel the motion, regardless of what your eyes are seeing? Your eyes can see the curtains move from side to side.. At that point it is best to order a Long Island and blame the liquor. happy cruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted August 23, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Ship motion regardless of location does not bother me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr green Posted August 23, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I feel for some of the performers, dancers, jugglers, and acrobats to name a few, since they all require to have a firm stage under their feet to perform. john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 23, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I can happen depending on the location of the theatre. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorisis Posted August 23, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 23, 2014 On most ships the theater is forward. I feel motion most when I am up high and forward. theaters are usually on lower decks. i guess it all depends on sesitivity to motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehpride Posted August 23, 2014 #12 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I feel motion much more in areas like the theatre because my inner ear can't match the motion I'm feeling to the motion I'm seeing. I find sitting facing the way the ship is moving helps a lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancal Posted August 24, 2014 #13 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Yes, but it is always attributable to the quality of the show, not the height of the sea. Edited August 24, 2014 by iancal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patti22 Posted August 24, 2014 #14 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Keith1010 You are always the voice of reason. I don't post much but read what you have to say. I have had three ear surgeries and do just fine with most experiences onboard including the the theatre. If I have a problem, I just go look at the horizon!!

Dcoy Posted August 24, 2014 #15 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I was in the Queen Victoria's theater watching the latest Superman movie during some rough weather. It was interesting during the flying sequences. The ship's movement was almost in time with the movie. That was a strange feeling. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can happen to anyone, but if the seas get too rough they will cancel the show for being unsafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
