    what can I say?
    Well, what can I say about a show choreographed by a guy who is obviously influenced by Michael Jackson (also judging by his clothes) and who is perhaps the best dancer out there today?

    What makes <Lord of the Dance> so good are, in my opinion, are the technical aspects: *no* dialogue (except for the singing which in my opinion is the only time when <lord> doesn't shine), a variety of instruments, and a quick pace.

    Even if you're like me. watching it thinking "if I were to do this I would've changed that or had rather done this" in some instances- well, the fact that you're watching something that makes you think of how you can do it yourself means it has quite a bit of positive energy, and allows for the viewer to reflect on a lot about himself- which is the goal of art... n'est-ce-pas?
