We felt about the same when we went with comp tickets. Actually left at intermission.

But the bathrooms were really cool to see.

And his daughter couldn't be untalented if she tried. We used to joke that if her Dad wasn't the marquee name she'd never have been hired to the show.

Bathroom was cool.. But you know, it is only a bathroom..

Show was bad, I stuck it out, kept thinking it would get better... LOL!!! NOPE!! it didnt.

I stuck it out, kept thinking it would get better, LOL,. NOPE! My mistake

Shoji thinks he is a comedian and hes not, They think she can sing, she cant..

Bad deal, I am glad you guys agree, sometimes I think I get overly critical about shows.

Shoji was my inspiration for learning the violin. He is an awesome violinist, but the fiddle should be a side dish and never the main course (unless you look like Lindsey Stirling)

I enjoyed his show in 2015. When I went back in 2016 it seemed like Christina was trying to make herself the star of the show. The word around town is that Shoji had made her the producer. She had fired all the other female dancers and was making it all about her.

We left at intermission...

So the show used to be good but then took a dump. Maybe that explains things.

Maybe, But I have yet talked to anyone that thought it was a good show to begin with.

He built a high dollar theatre, marketed his show and theatre to the bus crowds, hit it just right and had a good run.. Not so much anymore..

I never saw the show, but I figure if the restroom is the highlight of your visit, something's lacking in the show.

I saw the Christmas show years ago and I remember that when they sent people dressed as Angles flying over the crowd on wires I had had enough. My entire family laughed out loud and decided it was so hokey we would leave. Not sure we even made it to intermission.

Okiebenz · December 17, 2018, 06:19:10 PM

Man now you guys are making me really want to go just to see the spectacle

Don't forget the Shoji Theatre is for sale now too ... and the Kirby VB Theatre is still unsold and rotting away

Don't know if mentioned, but Kirby VB Theater currently under renovation and will be the home of Bloom Church.

Okiebenz · December 19, 2018, 05:55:51 PM

What the heck happened to Kirby? I saw his show back when he was at that theater and it was great. The next time I saw him was at the theater that is attached to the motel and he only had about 2-3 rows sold. Show was not nearly as good. Then he disappeared.
