E23NK1 Posted April 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2016 We are just off Freedom last week and booked the 8 night for next April. So my question is, how often do they change out the entertainment? I mean the main show in Arcadia as well as the other acts such as comedian, Drew Thomas the Illusionist, Ice Show and the Schooner lounge pianist? Just wondering if we will see the same shows?

Main shows change every 5 to 6 years +. Drew Thomas seems to be glued to the Freedom. Ice show, same as main stage shows. Guest entertainers like comedians, jugglers, aerialists, etc., change from cruise to cruise. Schooner bar pianists come and go, varying with the lengths of their contracts.

You have it right about Drew Thomas, he's been on the ship since it first sailed. I wonder if he's changed his act at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Terre Posted April 28, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 28, 2016 You have it right about Drew Thomas, he's been on the ship since it first sailed. I wonder if he's changed his act at all? We sailed the Freedom last year and will sail her again in Sept., so I'll see if his act is the same as last year's. It would be nice if he changed it every so often.

I was hoping you weren't going to say that...my wife may kill me for booking the same ship...but I really wanted the extra day...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 29, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 29, 2016 When were the production shows last changed, or have they been yet? It's been Marquee as long as I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeannegirl326 Posted May 14, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 14, 2016 We are counting the days until our Western on the Freedom on 6/5. We enjoy going to the pub in the evening. Does anyone from a recent sailing know who the guitar player was in the pub? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone from a recent sailing know who the guitar player was in the pub? Send an e mail to web_reservations@rccl.com, they should be able to provide you a list of all the entertainment for your sailing. Note the underscore between web and reservations.

Rare Terre Posted July 27, 2016 #9 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I honestly don't mind seeing the same shows again because I usually see something I missed the second time around. Looking forward to seeing Drew Thomas again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted July 28, 2016 #10 Share Posted July 28, 2016 The production shows go on for years. The guest entertainers change weekly. No worries! If you remember the production show from years ago....you need to get out more! Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronandannette Posted August 4, 2016 #11 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Does the Freedom have a off-Broadway version of anything like, say for example, Saturday Night Fever on the Liberty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted August 4, 2016 #12 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Does the Freedom have a off-Broadway version of anything like, say for example, Saturday Night Fever on the Liberty? No. Closest show Freedom has to Broadway is called Marquee, just another RC production show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am not mistaken, I think Marquee is Ocean Boy's favorite production show.....:rolleyes::rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shortstuft Posted August 6, 2016 #20 Share Posted August 6, 2016 We just got off Freedom two weeks ago. Drew Thomas still puts on a good show. Only one small new part added to his act. Heard from entertainment manager that they won't be changing the production shows any longer. They will be just moving the ships to different locations.

We wanted to visit PR and St. Kitts and the extra day was a bonus. All the same shows we saw in 2014. I am hoping that some of the live music and lounge performers has changed. -Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I snagged 6321 for my next FOS cruise which I think is located very close to the PR you had on your Indy trip. We'll do what we can to keep FOS in good shape for you....
