		<description>&quot;With so much to experience on the gigantic high-def screen, it&#039;s easy to overlook the phenomenal performance of the orchestra and conductor Dirk Brosse&quot;  

I would like to add, that it would have been nice to have had additional smaller LED screens to stage left and right that were consistantly panning The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir in synchronization to the movemnent and movie clips.  This would have added to the musical experience for those who appreciate not just the movies but the amazing original scoring by composer John Williams.</description>

		<description>Not for CHILDREN!

Wilkes-Barre, PA
Wachovia Arena
17 November 2009

I just got home (1.5 hour drive) and had a lot of time to think about the concert and the environment.

While I enjoyed the music, the special effects and Mr. Daniels - this show is not for 10 and under unless they are very mature, theatre savy and/or have very strict parents.

Just because you plop your kids down in front of the Tele to watch DVD&#039;s of Stars Wars, buy them action figures and bed sheets does not mean that they will appreciate this performace.  This is not a movie with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing along to the LED screen.  The clips from the movies are not full length and are edited and joined together to set the tone of the musical movement.

What did I experience for $125?  Surrounded by poorly behaved children who only were interested in playing with the toy light sabres they sold in lobby...kicking seats...potty breaks and spilled sodas and popcorn...talking during Mr. Daniels naratives...just general rudeness and lack of parenting.  And adults (I don&#039;t use the word parents) because they acted like children as well when asked to mind their children.  

Please, do not bring your children to this perfomance!  

The professional musicians in the The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir have spent countless hours and years perfecting their craft.  The tech (Design and Production) staff have also spent many hours perfecting the visual experience and cordinating the visual effects to the musical movements and edited movie clips/montage.

While I did view some well behaved children under 10 they were few and far between.

I will be using my airline miles to travel to the Air Canada Centre, in Toronto, ON on Thu, Nov 26, 2009 07:30 PM 

I will report to as my experience there.  

I have floor seats 9th row 3rd seat in from center.</description>
