The first time I went to this little garden, I took my mom. It was so pretty, and we really enjoyed…read morethe art and sculpture. So when I went yesterday, I expected more. It was a festival after all. I wanted lights and lanterns, and trees lit from the limbs. There was none of that really. And the shows were on a low platform, so watching it above the crowds was a problem for short folks like myself. All in all, I recommend going when you can enjoy the space without the people. For an interesting change of pace, the festival was okay. Lots of food options as well as local vendors. Parking was not an issue. And I even walked around the church while waiting for the fireworks show. (And stopped in Parish Taceaux)

The theater was not open before 7pm and the very prominent signage expressing no food or drink was not subtle. There was a make shift bar. If you wanted a cocktail in the lobby. And soon as the theater opens the wines and waters were welcome. So. I'm not sure if the signs were enforced. Seating is cramped. The restroom had 3 stalls. The show was $23 I will go back.

I saw Blue Man Group here last night, as a belated birthday present from my wife (We've always wanted to catch them out in Vegas at the Venetian, but usually get distracted by something else or other once we're out there, which is easy to do!). The show was amazing! It was one of the most energetic, intensely creative and funny live performances I have EVER seen! We LOVED it! We are so thrilled to have finally caught their show after all these years! And there's no place we would have rather seen BMG other than The Venetian! The Strand was the perfect host for this show!
