Was going to South America ports we wanted to see. Production shows were some of the best we have seen in 35 cruises. The cast gives 110% every minute of the shows. You won't think it possible to move at that fast a pace for a full hour, but they do, and they will be waiting for you at the entrance to the theater after the show to greet you. The cruise director doesn't have the staff do all the work, he will sweat with you daily out on the deck. Most involved director we have ever had. About half the guest performers were worth seeing, and with the exception of a piano player /singer with little talent and a need to talk to staff rather than preform, the music on board was great especially blind vinyl, encourage Amy to sing, and the jazz trio. Food quality ,service, and selection were poor. What a shame.
