The story line of this live stunt show is simple: Sindbad and his sidekick Kabob arrive in search of treasure, get distracted by the beautiful Princess Amoura, and are threatened by the evil sorceress Miseria. That's all you really need to know, and it's enough to get the good guy kicking off 25 nonstop minutes of punching, climbing, diving, and leaping his way through the performance. Kids are pleased with the action, and women are pleased with Sindbad.

Find seats about 15 minutes before showtime. Don't sit too far up front—the experience is better a few rows back.
