We booked a show but got so much more than we expected. The mini shows before the main show are great, telling the stories of the people and very well organised. But the main show: Wow! I've seen many great shows but this is breathtaking. The storytelling, the lights, the music, the sets changing all the time. Amazing to say the least. I will never forget this experience.
