Default Solstice class entertainment venues?

We are planning a quickie 7 nighter in Feb. on the Solstice. Haven't done that class yet and am wondering.....In the description of the amenitites/entertainment on the web site, I read that not only do they have the normal production or entertainer shows in the main theatre, but also offer smaller shows like late night comedians in a smaller venue. Does that really happen on the Solstice or Equinox? Or is the descriptionjust part of a "wish list" for the ships. Thanks. Looking forward to checking out the newest class. Will continue to research the ship itself on back posts.

On my recent 14 day Equinox cruise (Med) they never had any alternative entertainment in the other areas. Some ships I have been on might have an adult comic act or an entertainer give a performance in a smaller lounge. They did have typical cruise bands playing music throughout the ship. Some times that had Karaoke or a game show or some passenger event, but not professional entertainment giving a second show. It might change once the Equinox gets to the U.S.

Thanks. I see on their website that X mentions late night shows, but hadn't read anything here saying anyone experienced that. I know on Royal C they do it..or at least used to. We would enjoy an adult alternative other than the usual routine. Maybe in time....

Where exactly are these smaller venues? I will definitely keep my eye out for that. We really enjoyed the comedian on Century but I know some were less than pleased with his "adult" humor - even though the show was clearly advertised as such!

There is a venue called Celebrity Central. The entrance is in the Entertainment Court. This venue is used for smaller audiences, like the enrichment seminars. On my Solstice cruise, they did a late night comedy show in here.
