When I worked on board NCL from 2002 to 2007, Smaller Ships had Production Shows by " NCL Productions" and the larger ships had " The Jean Ann Ryan company". They were typical Cruise ship Style Productions shows for that time period and I am sure cost way less then Certain Main Shows on Current Ships. On a 7 day run, there would be 3 production shows the rest were Guest Entertainers from Comedians, Vocalists, Magicians and other Prop Comedy Acts. I for one would love to see more Guests Entertainers.
