The Rockettes ROCK...or Should I say KICK!

Ok...everyone is asking me how the Rockettes were? They were AWESOME! I am so glad we went! Here are a few pix...we couldn't take any during the show. I do wish some the Rockettes came in the atrium after the show to take pictures & talk to the kids.

My niece had a blast! She wants to audition now! HA! She love the Chorus line kicking of course. She had been doing it for weeks at home! HA! There was one skit where a fake side of a Taxi car goes across the stage with a Rockette in it. When it got to the middle of the stage the Rockette comes out & so does all the rest of them. My niece was so amazed & ask how did they all fit in there! HA! I love kids! Grandpa was even heard laughing during the show! :-)

Grandma & Grandpa bought her a Rockette doll which she slept with that night! HA! Pix #9 is the Rockette Doll the next day playing some Playstation! HA! Her teacher asked her class to bring something they got for Christmas & she brought her Rockette doll!

I found it fascinating to read about the history of the Rockettes. They were started in the 1920s I believe in Missouri.

The costumes were very colorful & Santa even came. A few of the Rockettes must have been 7 feet tall! That is what they seemed like man! And one you could see her big white teeth even from the back of the theatre! MAN! I would definitely go again and highly recommend you go once in your lifetime! Well worth it!
