One of the most appealing aspects of taking a vacation on the Disney Magic or the Disney Wonder is their great stage shows. Disney Cruises will feature state-of-the-art theaters which will present Broadway shows that will include Disney characters as well as impressive special effects. All of the stage shows will be included in the cost of the cruise and will generally take place on Deck 4 in the Walt Disney theater toward the front of the vessel. This theater may get pretty crowded sometimes, but with a number of simple steps, you will be able to snag a prime spot as well as enjoy each and every show to the fullest.
1. Read your Navigator each and every evening so you will have knowledge about which shows are being provided the day after. The Navigator is practically nothing else than a schedule of various activities which is delivered to your cabin each and every night. It will list the shows for the day after and the scheduled times when the show will perform. Typically, there are two distinct performances during the evening of each and every show for accommodating guests who will eat dinner at different times.
2. Try to arrive at the theater at least fifteen minutes before the show will begin. The doors will normally open fifteen to twenty minutes before the show begins, and if you should arrive early, you will be able to choose a good seat. Late arrivals will risk poor seat selections; sometimes, the theater will fill at its maximum capacity.
3. You should sit in one of the front rows if possible, so you can take advantage of the beautiful special effects. In “Disney Dreams… An Enchanted Classic,” bubbles will drop down during the sequence of “Little Mermaid,” and various lasers will enhance a few scenes. Choosing seats in the front rows will put you very near of these effects. Sit in the center section if you can, and not necessarily in the left or right wings. There will be no cut-off time for seating, so passengers will most likely continue to enter the theater until it will reach its maximum capacity. If you will be seating on the side, various attendees may block your view as they will walk down the aisles when they will search their seat.
4. Pay attention to the “balconies” on the left or right side of the stage. In some of these stage shows, action will take place on one of these balconies. Depending on what sequence will be, you may see live actors or animated characters. They sometimes come out on the balconies when the curtain will call too.
5. Always try to stay until the end of the final curtain call. It may be quite tempting to leave early from the show to avoid the crowd, but if you do not stay, you may miss quite a surprise such as streamers or “fireworks”, depending on what show will perform.
