Jubilee -- what seats?
 
Trying to decide between $59 theatre seats and further back $53 ones. Does it really make any difference? Or is this one of those shows where you actually want to be further back?

Hey don't keep starting new threads- just top your original by posting a response to it. Many people just put "ttt" meaning "to the top" which is where your thread goes after someone responds. And by the way, you may have to wait more than 10 minutes for a response. Chill.

Where is this located what is it for? Why would you want to be close up or far back? Is it like Gallagher and you get hit by watermelon spray?

give them a thrill and sit up front....they used to give a back stage tour...b4 the show...sometimes sitting a little further back is a better view...but maybe it would be better to sit up front....vision may be a problem....

Even if Scott won't tell us here's the scoop. It's Bally's Las Vegas and the show is Donn Arden's Jubilee ! <BR><BR>Now about the seating.....

Scott, firstly we saw the show last month, and it sucked big time. We are however in our late 20's. Older people who comprised about 80% of the audience seemed to like it. As far as seats, under no circumstances buy the front table seats - the view from there is the worst. The stage and the magnitude of the show is too grand, and you won't see the whole thing from there. If you still want to see the show, go for 10-15 rows away from the stage. Enjoy whatever you decide.

to x:<BR>i'm sorry, i was having a problem with my computer and ended up accidentally re-posting (i was also trying to put this message in the nevada area, but it didn't go through.) whatever happened to benefit of the doubt before jumping on someone for a small accidental mistake?

Hey Scott, nothing posts to a state. That selection is just for search purposes, it all posts to the US forum that's why poster put lots of information in their titles. Now if you'd like to reread my original post with a smile on your face you may see the tone in which it was intended. Then I came back with info to help others decipher your post but you didn't thank me for that. Again, chill

It's okay Scott, some of us knew what Jubilee meant right off the bat. I saw this show in Jan 2002 and really liked it (and I am in my early/coming close to my mid 20's). I can understand what the other posted did not like about it as this show reminds me more of oldtime/glamour showgirls and not as new and exciting as some of the other shows. The girls however are beautiful/costumes and sets are amazing and they put on a pretty good show. The only part of this show we thought was a little corny was the magician but he wasn't the worst and did add some impressing parts to the show. We sat in about the middle of the theater and to the right of the stage. I would try to get the LAST rows of seats in the first tier(closest to the stage) somwhere in the middle if they are available. You will be able to see well from there. During the show they also have walkways hung from the ceiling that will be directly above you/in front of you which the girls will walk on and dance on.

Look, I'm sorry if I took your original reply the wrong way, but can you see how it could come across less helpful and more sarcastic and impatient, especially when you end it with "chill?" Maybe you should have read my posts with a smile on your face too :-) I do appreciate your help; I think we both just misunderstood the other.

scott Jun 19th, 2002 12:25 PM

thanks lenleigh and to everyone else for the info!

Scott, don't worry about putting all information in your post. The more you do this, the more you learn. About Jubilee., as posted earlier by someone do not let them talk you into table seating. The theater type seating is much better and less expensive. We sat on the front row center of this section.It had been a number of years since I enjoyed the show. It is an old fashion Las Vegas show. Enjoy
