My family and I had the privilege of going to Greenville, SC today to attend the opening day of Curious George LIVE! When I was given the opportunity by Vee Corporation and the wonderful folks at U.S. Family Guide, I jumped at the chance because our boys watch Curious George on PBS Kids every.single.day!
I was very impressed with the Bi-Lo Center, in Greenville, SC, where the event was held! Everything was clean and there were so many kind event workers that were able to help us find our seats, etc. Much better than our local event center! Also, the seating that the center had roped off for the opening event, this morning, was quite close to the stage! Even if you had gotten the "cheapest" tickets, you'd still be very close and the kids would still feel apart of the action!
This is the first live stage event for Curious George and it was definitely worth the trip! Like I said, we are already fans of Curious George, but I thought the production was done wonderfully! It reminded me a lot of the Thomas the Tank Engine LIVE event that we were able to attend last year. The songs were catchy and beautifully sung. The dancing and choreography kept the children engaged and attentive in the show! During this production, Curious George is on a mission to help Chef Pisghetti save his restaurant! I think most kids would definitely feel sorry for Chef Pisghetti, who was very upset during the production, but I looked over at my oldest, Bubbie and he was wiping his eyes! My poor sensitive soul- was very sad for the Chef! I assured him that the Curious George show ALWAYS has a happy ended and this wouldn't be any different.... and it didn't disappoint him! Curious George saved the day! And the ending was very cute! Bubbie was so happy for the outcome!
This was such a blessing for our family and a huge thank you to U.S. Family Guide and Vee Corporation! We had a wonderful experience attending this event and will have memories for a lifetime!

That looks awesome - Orange would LOVE it! She watches on PBS too. Yay for a fun family outing! Hope you have a great weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteCool! I didn't even know that Bi-Lo had places like that. Hmm, you learn something new every day. And, I had wondered where you had been. Very cool!

What fun! My kids would love that show (they are HUGE George fans, too)! Glad you guys had a chance to get away and that everyone had fun.
