New York Spring Spectacular

Last weekend I saw the New York Spring Spectacular featuring The Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall.  While I know the Rockettes are quintessential New York, I figured I can make an exception and feature them on the blog due to how exceptional the performance was.  A few highlights:

1. The opening dance was to T-Swift’s “Welcome to New York” and it was perfection.

2. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were in the show (just their voices, but still!) 

3. There was singing.  In the rain. 

4. LIVE PUPPIES RAN ACROSS THE STAGE

5.  There was a montage featuring some of the best New York moments in film.     

The storyline centered on a tour guide taking the audience on a journey through New York, with a ton of interesting facts and history about the city along the way.  The actors were hilarious, the Rockettes were incredible and the show was enjoyable whether you're a visitor (see first photo) or a resident.  And not only was the show entertaining, it made me proud to call New York City home (the next morning I was still so pumped from the show that I woke up at 7 am and ran around Brooklyn Bridge Park listening to “Welcome to New York” approximately eighteen times).  I can’t recommend this show enough, and I fully plan on dragging every friend and family member I can find to the Christmas Spectacular in December.

These ladies were visiting from Sweden and they loved the show!
