点评:I've wanted to visit The Lost Colony for over 20 years. Our last visit, with our young family, was wonderful. I loved the history, and the costumes, and the live outdoor theater.
So, on a whim, we packed an overnight bag and off we went from Virginia Beach. We arrived in plenty of time to take in the full experience. I'd read about the 1M $ improvements done over the last few years and was excited to see the changes. The stage and backdrop and sitting areas were as I remembered. I'd read about the strobe light addition and looked forward to how it would enhance the show.
My enthusiasm was diminished from the opening. We were seated in the center section, 4th row. But after intermission we moved to some upper level seats. The volume was deafening at both locations. And the dialogue was EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to understand. We left at the conclusion of the performance.
It was extremely disappointing and honestly I don't think I could recommend the show to anyone! If I had taken my granddaughters I think they would not have enjoyed it either.
The strobe lights added to the visual experience but the SOUND and DIALOGUE SYSTEMS definitely need work.
翻译:20多年来,我一直期待着能去“失落的殖民地”参观。上一次我们带着年幼的孩子一家去游览,体验棒极了。我喜欢那里的历史氛围、传统服饰,还有户外实景戏剧表演。
于是,一时兴起,我们收拾好过夜行李,从弗吉尼亚海滩出发了。我们提前抵达,得以充分享受整个游览过程。我此前读过有关过去几年里该地投入100万美元进行翻修的报道,因此很期待能看到变化。舞台、背景布景以及休息区都和我记忆中的一模一样。我之前读过关于添加频闪灯的相关介绍,很期待这能如何提升演出的效果。
然而从开场起我的热情就大打折扣。我们起初坐在中央区域的第四排,中场休息后则换到了楼上的座位。无论在哪个位置,音量都大得震耳欲聋,台词更是极其难以听清。演出结束时我们就离开了。
这次体验实在令人失望至极,说实话,我觉得自己根本无法向任何人推荐这场演出!如果我带上我的孙女们,我想她们也不会喜欢的。
频闪灯增添了视觉体验,但音效和对话系统显然还需要改进。
