anyone feel queasy whilst watching the shows?

No, I am not referring to the acts themselves (although some of the comedians...). What I mean is do you find sitting in the theatre (which is at the front of the ship and down low) makes you feel a bit motion sensitive? I never felt seasick as such but I definitely felt the motion, particularly when watching movies on the big screen in the theatre.

(I would imagine that this may not be the case for the bigger ships such as the Oasis or the Allure as the theatres would be in various locations?).

No.

If you are watching the performer/s, any movement on the stage is at the same rate as in the audience, so there is nothing to feel different from a theater on land. And most of the time there is no significant movement in the ship anyway.

Sitting waiting for the show to start, sometimes I'm a little bothered by the curtain swaying.

Yes, at times felt the motion, being out in the Pacific, or North of Polar Circle. Once a show was cancelled and the pool was drained for safety concerns. Sometimes felt the motion in the restaurant(s) that was located at the end of the ship. Buffet is on top, occasionally had to move from column to column for support ;) No, I don't drink, at least not at breakfast/lunch time.

But wouldn't your body (inner ear?) possibly feel the motion, regardless of what your eyes are seeing?

Not queezy. But others were on many occasions even on the big ships. Just doesn't move as much like to top you out of a chair or that sort if movement

Your eyes can see the curtains move from side to side.. At that point it is best to order a Long Island and blame the liquor. happy cruising

Ship motion regardless of location does not bother me at all.

I feel for some of the performers, dancers, jugglers, and acrobats to name a few, since they all require to have a firm stage under their feet to perform.

I can happen depending on the location of the theatre.

On most ships the theater is forward. I feel motion most when I am up high and forward. theaters are usually on lower decks. i guess it all depends on sesitivity to motion.

I feel motion much more in areas like the theatre because my inner ear can't match the motion I'm feeling to the motion I'm seeing. I find sitting facing the way the ship is moving helps a lot.

Yes, but it is always attributable to the quality of the show, not the height of the sea.

You are always the voice of reason. I don't post much but read what you have to say. I have had three ear surgeries and do just fine with most experiences onboard including the the theatre. If I have a problem, I just go look at the horizon!!

I was in the Queen Victoria's theater watching the latest Superman movie during some rough weather. It was interesting during the flying sequences. The ship's movement was almost in time with the movie. That was a strange feeling.

This would be the correct answer.....

This can happen to anyone, but if the seas get too rough they will cancel the show for being unsafe.
