I was really impressed by the valley youth theater "Aida" i was crying half way through the 2nd act and didn't stop crying till i was out of the theater and in my car. Amazing Voices from not only the leads but the entire cast. I knew it was going to be an amazing show by the end of "Every story is a love story"(opening number). DROP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND GO SEE THIS SHOW! By the end i forgot this was a youth theater, a broadway quality show for only about 20$ per ticket Why wouldn't you go? Collapse

Don't let the subject matter of this play keep you from seeing it. It's a well-written, fast-paced, powerful drama. I probably would have missed it if I didn't have season tickets. Maybe the main character will remind you of someone you know, even yourself! Collapse

My son and I took the Mars flight and had a great time! Although this was educational entertainment, nobody noticed as we worked together as a team to accomplish our "mission." I met people from 5 to 60+ and everyone appeared to be having a great time. As we were leaving all we could hear were enthusiastic comments from those around us. My son was bubbling with excitement and wants to return with his Dad who couldn't make it that day. Anyone with an interest or a love for astronomy will love this and anyone who doesn't will definitely start to get interested in astronomy! The staff and volunteers there were terrific, friendly, and just plain fun! Our mission leaders were the ones who really made our experience fantastic! I definitely recommend this as a family outing, a fun date, or something fun with friends! Go check out some space and have fun! Collapse

I was very impressed by the Nearly Naked Theatre troups rendition of The Rocky Horror Show. I went to the opening night. They asked us to not do "too much" audience participation (save for the AP shows). During the show a few people burst out a few halarious, obvious "participation" lines and they added to the play BIG TIME! I loved it. We are planning on returning on Friday night for the late night audience participation night. We are becoming Wonderful 100 members too! Collapse

My wife and I were extremely pleased with the production of Aida. It's highly professional and the leads have incredible power in their voices. We saw Aida on Broadway and were more impressed with this production. It speaks well for the younger, rising stars from our community. Collapse

I have seen Aida performed by Valley Youth Theatre at the Herberger twice. I am seriously thinking about going again this weekend! The show is incredible. After a while you feel as though you are watching seasoned adults. The entire cast (as well as the costumes) absolutely sparkle. This is not really a show for kids, more PG 13. Don't miss this show, it closes this weekend! Collapse

I had my doubts about men portraying the nuns. Yes there is a tiny amount of falsetto work in order to keep the illusion alive, but not to the point of distraction. Each "sister" has their strengths and uses them to the utmost. There are only two points in the show that needed improvement: I wish Sister Amnesia's puppet had workable arms, and the line "Sister Julia...Child of God" should be read "Sister Julia Child...of God" in order to really drive home the classic cooking show reference. Other than that the Reverand Mother's look of dissaproval is priceless and the "Dying Nun" ballet is fantastic! It's the first time I've seen it done like that and now I wouldn't want to see it any other way! Go see the show if you've had a bad day, because this will make you forget all about it. Promise.
