    What a great show! Wasn't what I had expected and the show continued to push the bar. There was all sorts of dancing, singing, performances, horse routines and so much more. The area is pretty small, I don't think there would be a bad seat in the house. We seat in section 6, first row AA, it was the same pricing as numerous top rows and was great. Again, not a bad seat though. The parking was extremely different, you park, go in and must buy a parking pass once in the show... they give you a voucher, which you give to security as leaving... this really congests everyone trying to leave and can take up to 45 minutes just to get out. Don't go there thirsty, a small glass of wine is $14, beer is $8 and a can of soda $5.

    Amazing. Fantastic. Beautiful. Incredibly emotional. Horses so engagingly mesmerizing I wanted to get up from my VIP seat and just run down to the arena and ride bareback along with them all! The opening of the show (I won't describe it because I don't wish to spoil this experience for those who haven't seen it yet!) was so packed with memories of my own Arab horse and other horses I'd owned over the years, and the immense joy and love these wonderful, potent, yet oh so gentle animals give us, that I was unashamedly crying...and when this first phase of "Odysseo" ended I clapped so enthusiastically my plastic cup of red wine splahed all over me and unfortunately on my next seat neighbor!! Lucky him I wore the brunt of this accident, on my pale blue T-shirt with a painted Arabian horse's head I had just bought at the recent Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show. Did I mention I adore Arab horses, no? Well now you know! Btw, Arab is correct but Arabian is more commonly used here in the US; I call them Arab and get snobby-weird looks from the horsey set, but in Europe - where I spent 30 years - they are Arabs. Odysseo lives up to its name : a journey through time and cultures, magically told with unbridled, unsaddled horses and graceful, strong riders and music played with feeling and Italian language lyrics. I would spend a lifetime immersed in this show and among these creatures, but alas, the lights come on and as all wondrous things the show ends. Standing ovations have us all clapping our hands red, clapping loudly, happily; then, for those of us with VIP tickets, the honor of a tour of the stables. We get a chance to see, but not touch, although I would've loved to feel the warm breath from a horse's nostrils, these incredible animals who gave us such a fantastic show and worked so amazingly well together!! Most are geldings, but there are several stallions, too, and absolutely no mares: that would cause an untold number of problems as anyone around horses can tell you. The horses and the artists truly are bonded, it's amazing to watch them work together in such harmony, tranquility and trust. I would spend days immersed in this atmosphere! Enjoy this wonderful show, it's a great adventure and something you will treasure for a long, long time.

    When I saw the original Cavalia nearly four years ago, it was like nothing I had ever experienced. Odysseo raised the bar to an entirely new level. Odysseo is staged in an enormous tent (the largest of its kind!) which includes amphitheater type seating, a stage/arena area that is larger than a hockey rink and a video display larger than three IMAX screens. Impressive. Well, impressive until you see the horses. From the moment the music started and the lights came up, my breath was taken away. Horses and performers interacting. Running, jumping and playing. Many of the acts featured horses without any sort of restraint, demonstrating the remarkable love and trust between horse and trainer. At one time, there were 30 horses on the 'stage' area at once. All moving in synchronized groups of three or four, guided only by their focus on the trainer's cues - words and gentle touches. Spectacular. As if all of that weren't enough, Odysseo dazzled with live musicians and vocalists, dancers, acrobats and trick riders. So many talented people all under one big top! If you are on the fence about seeing either Cavalia or Odysseo (let's be honest, the tickets aren't inexpensive) GO! You will love every minute, just like I did. ** Just in case you were wondering, not one of the equine performers 'fertilized' the stage area. Now that is training. :)

    The show started promptly at a visually beautiful engineered stage. It was also accompanied by equally beautiful live music and songs. Like my friend told me, the show is like Cirque Du Soleil with horses. I was satisfied just watching the gorgeous horses, but the show also displayed not only talented acrobats, it also demonstrated great trusts between humans and horses. It was truly a magnificent show.

    Ask the Community - Cavalia

    Are the obstructed view seats that bad?

    Here is what it will look like: https://binged.it/2HAhONy

    Anyone who's gone to the show... are they pretty strict on what you can bring into the show? Purses, bags, etc. Also, our tickets say bleacher seating row CC. Anyone know if these are actual seats, or bleachers with no back? Thank you

    You can bring purses without inspection...no recording on your phone, and they don't want outside food and drinks...here is a tip for parking, get there really early and you can park upfront, leave right after the show is finished to get out ahead… Read more

And it's safe to say that Tempe Center for the Arts is one of my favorites. First off, you can either park in the parking garage a few minutes away from the venue by foot or you can park in the gravel lot that is a minute or two farther away. If you park in the garage, they will validate your ticket. Guaranteed parking is always a big win in my book. I've been to the Tempe Center for the Arts (TCFTA) twice. Once for a concert and once for a play put on by the Arizona Theater Company. Both have been A+ experiences. First off, the venue is located right by Tempe Towne Lake which makes for a picturesque location. The venue itself is just as beautiful with stunning architecture, both inside and out. It's clean. It's comfortable. The ushers are friendly. There is plenty of seating to hang out outside before the show, during intermission, or after. You can also hang out on the patio where there's a fire pit and seating. On a certain day of the week that's escaping me, they do an open mic night out there. I haven't tried any of the concessions, but they have a bar and some snacks. There's complimentary water. The theater is pretty intimate which makes for a better experience. It's designed well. There are even often some art installations you can check out. Overall, you can't ask for much better than this when it comes to an event experience! I've become a season ticket holder of the Arizona Theater Company, so I can't wait to be back!

There are a couple of reasons why I've been quite happy with ATC: (1) The venue: Performances take place at the Tempe Center for the Arts. It's a beautiful theater all-around. The architecture inside and out, how modern and clean it is, the free water you can bring into the theater, how comfortable the theater is itself, the patio with fire pits, and the art that's displayed. They validate your parking if you park in the adjacent parking garage. Coming from a guy who goes to a lot of events, this is one of my favorite venues. (2) The price + the perks: I thought the price for season tickets was fair. As part of being a season holder, you also get some awesome perks like a free buddy pass, 50% off tickets to bring a friend, and more. (3) Customer service: My interactions with them have always been pleasant. If you're unable to make a performance, they will work with you. (4) The shows: I've been impressed with the sets and all of the theatrical elements that are a part of the performance. The acting, overall, has been solid, too. I have three more performances left. I hope next season's line-up is just as interesting!

Rubberband Dance - Every So Slightly. Very progressive show and when we got back home and I paid closer attention to the other show options offered on their website, realized this is prevalent from show-to-show. Performers, male and female, came out dressed in jumpsuits, the same you'd see 1) pilots of military fighter jets, 2) farm workers, 3) etc. wear. They were unisex by design as were their undergarments (tops and bottoms) and by the end of the performance, after having stripped themselves of the jumpsuits they each continued their routines with those same jumpsuits tied using the legs and arms of the jumpsuits into a bundle wrapped around their heads and faces. If you've ever seen the movie The Elephant Man, that is what they all resembled. Although The Elephant Man did not perform in their unisex under garments. Just wasn't prepared for that, finding it disturbing. Children (minors) were present in the audience.
