Didn't realize it was a "LIVE" tapeing when I booked the tickets. This made it last a lot longer.

Okay, the show would have been incredible if it would have been the 90 minute program it was supposed to be. Unfortunately, it wasn't until we got there that they mentioned it was being recorded live and therefore retake after retake and many unorganized lulls in between each skater made for a very long 3 hour show on a school night! The kids were getting bored, & people were leaving before the show ended since it was supposed to start at 7:30 (which it did not) and at 10:45 they were still trying to prepare for the ending of the show. I think there should have been a disclaimer when you bought the tickets that the show was going to be recorded live and therefore could run longer with many intermissions.

It was amazing and uplifting. I had my mother with me who is a cancer survivor, so it was really special to us. We can't wait till the 19th when it airs on Fox at 4:30.

The skating was spectatular, rightly named. My husband and I truely enjoyed the opening skate, Ave Maria, it was awesome. My son who has Down syndrome was attentive and enjoyed the skating. Five of family members attended. We enjoyed all the skater. Good to know about the cancer surviors services. The program was a bit long with the taping and sponsorship remarks

it was a good show, but we were there till after 11pm! that was ridiculous. Would have been great had they been performing the whole time, but it was the show they were taping to be televised and every mess up had to be redone. Took forever, very disappointed about them not notifying us about that. It was a school night and I took my children thinking we would be done around 2 hours. By the time intermission came around I was bored, I would have left had I not rode with someone else.

Kaleidoscope was different from what I expected, but the event was beautiful and the skating was breathtaking. Only downside was the fact that the show was being taped for TV, so there were retakes & pauses for equipment adjustments, which made the show run too long. We had to leave at intermission because our granddaughter was antsy.

It was great to get to watch all of the past ice skating champions skate again. It was also kind of cool to watch how the hosts have to do "retakes" of their lines and how much involvement it took from the audience. This was a great event and for a great cause!

As a longtime fan of Johnny Weir, I'd even buy a ticket to see him stand at center ice and pose. But his performance at Kaleidoscope was UNBELIEVABLE. Ave Maria was breath-taking and heartbreaking, and I would be lying if I said it didn't make me cry. Bad Romance was the other highlight of the night, and it had everyone going wild. Johnny is a true artist and performer, and San Antonio was very lucky to have him. I hope he comes back next year! LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

It didn't say anything in the ads for the event that it was going to be recorded live for TV. If I had known that, I wouldn't have went. I almost walked out after I had to sit through a bunch of introductions and speeches at the beginning making the ice show start 45 minutes late. Then during the show, we were kept waiting while introductions to skaters had to be done over and over again because of flubs and wait while they were changing tape in the cameras. Overall, it was very boring with all those long waits in between the ice skating acts. I admit it was a good cause but we should have been told it was going to be an all night affair.

Overall,
We enjoyed the ice skaters that performed, however, the first 45 minutes of talking by the organizer was a waist of time. The announcer kept saying "only one more thing and I'll stop talking". He kept going on and on and on. We brought our school age children and had to leave even before the intermission since it was obvious that with the 45 minute introduction, we weren't going to get out before 10pm. Next time, please skip the introductions and concentrate on what the public paid money to see!

Good show. I did not know it was being prepared for television and it was fun to see how it is done. Do overs take a long time so I wish had known about the timing. As always Johnny Weir was my favorite especially his Ave Maria. I want to go next year and take a friend along. I hope I can get the same seats. Our tickets said no cameras or video so I left my camera at home. At the show others were using flash cameras. I can take photos without flash but I went along with the rules. Either don't say no cameras or enforce the rule.

Since the show was being taped for television, there was a lot of dead time between performances, and there were a lot of do-overs (but we got more show for our buck that way!). The talent was wonderful, and Scott Hamilton has a great sense of humor! I'm looking forward to seeing the program air on Fox on December 19th.

This was a great event except that when they had intermission that all concession stands were closed. Since this happen we had to leave without seeing the last paret of the event since we were hungry, next time have them open past intermission then close the concession stands. The seats a very snug a as a person that is 6'6" if anyone would have been sitting in front of me I wouldn't been able to sit during the event.

I LOVED ALL the skating ... Scott Hamilton was hysterical .... the show itself was absolutely amazing :-) .......... BUT
Show began 30 minutes later than expected and then the talking went on forever at the beginning of the show .... my little 4 year old couldn't hardly stand still and then she ended up falling asleep at the end. We didn't stay past the last skate ... although it sounded like there was more going on ... it just ran soooooooooo late ....

Great Holiday Show...finally saw many skaters I had cheered on for many years. Sound system was great, singers Gloria Gaynor and David Archuletta were terrific. Realize only holiday exibition, but wish skaters had done more "jumps".
