Show time?

[jabrown40]

Forgive me if this has been posted, but I'm wondering what time the evening shows begin? I'd like to plan our dinners accordingly, and still see the evening entertainment. Thanks!

Usually 9pm

Just left the Sky and experienced shows at 6:30 and 9.

A lot of the show scheduling depends upon the number of cruise days.

We're doing the 7 night Sun to Cuba in the fall.

Considering we have given you two different answers, I am going to revise my answer and say that you aren't going to know about the 6:30 shows until you get on board. While the 9pm show seems a fixture, they do add additional performances and that part is unpredictable, especially this far in advance.

Why does the evening show commence so early at 9pm?

 

It forces one to either eat dinner early, rush dinner, or forego being on time for the commencement of the show.

 

Incidentally, how easy is it to get a seat in the theatre if one is on time for the show?

9pm isn't that early. Most places that I go to have the preliminary show at 8:30 and the main show at 9

My comment was in the context of cruise ship theatres.

 

On my recent cruises the evening show commenced at 10pm.

The show times (and dinner times) seem to be geared toward geriatric Americans (of which I am one). I presume the "evening shows" referred to are those in the Theater. On our Viking Sea cruise there were presentations, later, in Torshavn.

 

And we never had a problem finding seats for a show in the theatre, but a couple times it took a bit of searching to find 2 together.

So how is the pace of the dinners? Does it take more than 2 hours for dinner in the Restaurant or the specialties?

Couldn't agree more. We found the timing of the shows too early bearing in mind we like to have dinner at about 8pm.

 

Having said that,the majority of passengers on our cruise seemed to go to bed quite early so I guess we weren't the norm
