My wife and I took our 3 year old son to see Dora live this past Saturday. He loved it and my wife and I were also entertained. The sets were really well done and the acting was perfect. Dora, as she was in the show, had the same hotness as Velma from Scooby Doo. No complaints about the show at all. We were sitting in the front of Section 203 and it did get really old early on when the ushers would get onto the people taking photographs. They kept walking in front of us with their little lights. No programs were available for purchase. Oh yeah, take out a bank loan before purchasing concessions. Dr. Pepper is great...but not worth $5.50!!! Below it asks to upload photos with my review...the ushers did not allow photos!!!!

My 3 year old, who never sits still, was mesmerized during the entire 1 1/2 hour show. We loved it. Can't wait until Dora comes back to Dallas.

Honestly, I wasn't thrilled about going to see the Dora show itself, I was going to see the excitement on my daughter's face. She loved it of course, but the big surprise was that I actually found it to be pretty entertaining for adults! It follows the cartoon show format pretty well, which is great because kiddos are familiar with what happens next. But the story line was new, so it wasn't boring. I would definitely recommend this show, it was a lot of fun. Very well put together, great singing, great interaction with the crowd.

Dora the Explorer Live was a very good show to me and my 4 year old daughter. We have attended many live shows, however, I believed that Dora was one of the better ones that we have seen. Usually, I really am not very interested in the show's, but this show was diffierent. It was exciting, eventful and rather flamboyant. In my opinion, the singing was a favorable treat. I really enjoyed the songs that Dora and her friends sang. The songs gave the show a personable touch. Even now, my 4 year old remembers songs sang at the show. The quality time that we spent at the show was unforgettable.

The tickets weren't expensive but I would not see this show again if you paid me. The costumes were cheap and looked like they were left over Halloween costumes from 10 years ago.. The acting was horrible. My 2 yr old loves Dora but was not the least bit enthused. Her favorite part of the whole show was eating the popcorn I bought her at the refreshment stand.

Totally disappointed……We attend a lot of shows, (Yo Gabba Gabba, fresh Beat, Sesame Street, Etc) never have I been so disappointed in a show,
It started 20 min late, Dora didn’t speak Spanish, the only character that looked similar to himself was” Swiper”, The actors seemed to be all teenagers, Diego’s microphone was off the whole time, No one can hold a note on their own, The only paraphernalia sold in the theater was a flashlight that had a soccer ball on it, nothing with Dora on it, they guys outside of the theater were selling better stuff, The actors were moving the set themselves, ( in the open- not behind curtains, I could go on and on, But I’m pretty sure I made my point,,,,,,PARENTS!! Stay away from this one.

The whole show lasted about 1/2 hour it took longer to get in & seated..... The costumes the characters wore looked so cheap the setup of the stage was not impressive at all I have seen a better set up at elementary plays. I would have had more fun at the park for sure. The tickets were $15 not much but def not worth it for this show at all.

This show is awful. The characters are played by people wearing nasty run down costumes. My daughter was horrified. Boots costume was half on an u could see his face. Why wouldnt they have the costumes where the person was inside and your not able to see the face. I would like my money back if i could get it. Horribly disappointed in this and the portrail of thr show. I was under the impression that the characters would look like the show.

Hey,
We came all the way from manhattan for the show and it seemed to be too short it was about 40-45 min.
Just felt it could be 25 min longer.
The show it self was great and my daughter had good time.

They need something more animated to keep them engaged. It was ok, but I wouldn't go back and see it again.

The ad was misleading. It made it look like a Nickelodeon production when, in fact, it was community theater with real actors. The performance was poor, the theater needs to be updated, and it was an overall disappointing experience. My 2 year old daughter was expecting to see Dora, Boots, and others (in costume), not real actors made up to look like them (and the dog being carried around like a puppet by a live person). I think the ad needs to be more specific. My family drove 1 hour to see this and it was not worth it. Do not recommend!

The Sherman theatre did a pretty shabby job of Dora Live! The cast missed multiple cues, often looking at each other like deer in headlights. I am not exaggerating...the map would miss two out of the three "destinations" and the pirate pigs (aka, elderly women!) entered only to realize they weren't supposed to be onstage. Certain characters--the backpack for instance--barely showed expression and Dora, who had a beautiful voice and wonderful expression, was often seen adjusting her wig. I felt like the cast needed another week or two of rehearsals. Even the conductor was caught mouthing the wrong words to the audience! The costumes ranged from fair to pathetic. Finally, the sound/microphones were a big disaster, cutting in and out on the actors at any given moment.

On a positive note, the young men portraying Diego and Swiper the Fox were OUTSTANDING. They were in a league of their own...beyond talented. Their voices were powerful and amazing. Congrats to them, I would go back to see these two gentlemen perform any day!

This is my review...as a parent and as a performer. To be fair, my 3 year old children LOVED this performance. We still talk about the day we saw the "real" Dora and Diego! And I understand, the show was for them and not me. But when you pay twenty-something dollars a ticket, one would expect a little more professionalism from a theatre company.

Dora the explorer live was not worth the price they charged for admission. Very amateur bad props and horrible costumes. We saw Sesame Street Live for the same price and it was awesome. Do not waste your money on this show.
