    I dont agree , I reckon anyone can enjoy the show.
    Its more wushu than strict shaolin, but as gene will mention if he sees this, there arent any traditional 'shaolin' schools any more.

    The narration is a bit cheesy, but apart from that Its worth seeing.

    If you're not that sure, rent the video for $5 instead of watching the live performance for $100.

    Mckind13, what are you jabbering about?

    yu shan

    I've got tickets for next week.

    I posted the same question on the Media board and got similiar
    answers. But, I think it will be worth it...most of my students are
    going and plan on having a blast.

    I'll let you know what I thought.

    "If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"

    "Is enlightenment even possible? Or, did I drive by it like a missed exit?"

    It's simpler than you think.

    I could be completely wrong"

    I enjoyed the shows....
    The performance I saw was not as good as the DVD but still entertaining. I have to say, there were some really cool aspects to the show.
