I was on the April 1-5 4-nighter. I'll answer what I can!
What are the current shows? What are the shows like?
The shows are Nightclub Express and Ticket to Ride. I found the shows entertaining, but not great (not as good as the touring musicals I usually see). I had late-seating dinner and actually enjoyed spending the hour beforehand at the shows. I like the Beatles, so I thought that show was better. I never had trouble finding a seat (usually 1st/2nd row upstairs), but the best seats (downstairs center) will probably fill up first. There were also two comedians on our cruise, and another singer who did a short show after the comedian one night.
Is there a bar at the Serenity area, or does one have to rely on wandering drink servers? Are there attendants there full time?
No bar in the Serenity area. I was only there briefly a few times, and I never saw an attendant there (but I did see wandering drink servers).
Do the bathrooms have a magnifying mirror?
I don't recall seeing one, but I don't use one so I might have missed it.
Latest amenities in the bathroom?
Yep, razor, toothpaste, Pepcid. There are also shampoo and body wash dispensers in the shower.
Is the a/c controller the vent thing in the ceiling?
Yes, and it worked pretty well. I generally had it off during the day, and on at night, otherwise it was too cold in the room.
Are the public areas kept frigidly cold so that I'll need to bring a sweater and wrap or three to keep from freezing after a day in the sun?
YES!
I would like to know what is offered in the MDR for Breakfast and Lunch?
I LOVE eating in the MDR for all meals. We always got a table for 2, and we were always served promptly (except breakfast right before getting off the ship, that was slower). I love to get away from the crowds, and we were usually still done in 30 minutes.
