FAO anyone thats seen the Buffalo Bill show

[HuNtErs]

I'm thinking of going the the show when we're at DLP, Is it very loud? as my daughter will probably not ike it if its too loud.

Also, we haven't booked to see it yet, what do you think our chances are of getting 3 places when we get there?

It is loud, mainly due to audience participation, banging cutlery on tables, shouting and cheering, you are encouraged to be noisy.
Have a look at this to give you an idea of what to expecthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcnkv6ZVBCo

Both times we've seen it there have been spare seats in the auditorium, both times were offpeak seasons March and October.

The more audience participation the better. The rodeo clowns do a great job of getting their sections involved.

I'm not sure how people manage with buggy's, pushchairs and sleeping children, the seating is in long rows, in thin aisles and they're quite steep, I don't think I've ever seen a buggy in there, it would be quite hazardous I think, with the waiting staff rushing around with hot food.
Possibly you might be allowed in the very top row as there's a kind of walkway behind you. Otherwise the seating is arranged so that it's difficult to get out once you're in - think cinema, but more difficult because the seats are fixed.
Not much help, sorry - perhaps someone else can help.

DH is telling me that there's an area downstairs where all the pushchairs were left, I didn't notice.

I found it when the question of how much English/French is spoke at the show was asked. I think it gives a pretty good idea of what to expect, although I wouldn't suggest anyone watches all of it before seeing the show, wouldn't want to ruin the experience for anyone.

I'd forgotten about that. Yes we had to leave DD's buggy downstairs so you'll have to sit with your children. DD was 2 1/2 and she loved it
