Review: #SuperWhyLive at the North Charleston PAC!

I was fortunate enough to nab a complimentary four pack of tickets to go and see one of the hottest preschool live shows of the season!  Yep, Super Why Live came to town today and rocked out at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center!



From the Producers:

This awesome new show, from the producers of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark and Yo Gabba Gabba! Live, will feature new dance-inducing songs from Jack Antonoff of Fun., magical special effects, and a story that will make us all smile.The message in Super WHY Live: You’ve Got the Power! is that we can do anything we want to do and be anyone we want to be. Audiences will join Super Why, Wonder Red, Princess Presto, Alpha Pig, and Woofster, as they realize their dreams while searching for the answer to the question, “Who has the greatest super power in the world?”Showcasing cutting-edge technology, visual effects and aerial stunts, Super WHY Live is a sensory spectacular that will dazzle and delight audiences of all ages. The new production features a team of top talent, including a Tony Award-winning scenic designer and an Emmy and Tony Award-nominated lighting designer, who create a mesmerizing setting for the show.

Our Family's review:

One of the things that I love about the PAC is that there really is no bad seat!  The one thing I'm thankful for is that we were out of the confetti zone this time... we still had great seats though - Row R and we were just to the left of the stage!


The show itself was just over an hour long and kept Liam's attention from start to finish - the big issue for us was the half an hour intermission that broke up the show... it was long and several other parents we were sitting near remarked about it.  I know that they make money off concessions but really?  An intermission as long as half the show?  In the middle of an hour performance?

The concept of the live show was similar to the TV show - a question that needs a Super Story Answer!  All of the kids favorite characters were involved: Princess Pea, Pig, Red Riding Hood, Wyatt and even Woofster!


Liam was completely enthralled and Erik danced up a storm!  The message of the show was very positive and audience-focused that You Have the Power!  


I love that they were able to bring an educational TV program to life for my kids and keep the continuity going - the show was fast paced and used great songs, dialogue and of course Super Letters to keep my kids involved in the show!
