GUEST REVIEW OF TORONTO & HAMILTON BY IRIS ROGERS
I Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed Stars on Ice in Canada.
I had always intended to go to Hamilton's show, but was lucky enough to
have 2
great tickets given to me for the Toronto show by our Software
representative as well. We sat in the 4th row and had a great view,
plus we
got to go down to a company room for dinner and in intermission. It was
a
great surprise as I was given them Friday morning. Then to see it again
on
Saturday night was fantastic - interesting to see a bit of change in
things
the next night.
I thought the show was excellent and show-cased every one of the skaters
very well. Lucinda Ruh was fantastic in her spinning, I loved
Kristi's
skate to "Gold" (by Linda Eder) and am so glad she decided to come to
Canada this year. Todd was amazing and Jenny and Todd were the best I
have ever seen them. Alexei was great and did his short program as one of his
skates which I love. Shae and Victor did their Jackson number but
another
that really emphasized their hydroblading dressed in spider costumes
which
were supberb. Lloyd and Isabel were as daring as ever and really got
the
crowd going. Brian Orser did his number from the Sears Open which he
won -
A Step Back in Time to figures, very well done! The group numbers were
cute, inventive and showed their versatility. It was very funny to see
the
fellows dressed up for the can can number. I particularly enjoyed
seeing
Vic in that as he always seems so serious to me and was having a great
time
and grinning from ear to ear. Kurt was wonderful and completely magical
on
the ice to every note of music on Friday night. Unfortunately, Saturday
night he blew a lace on his one skate and ended up falling three times,
but
came out and skated it over again without a problem. Way to go Kurt!!
Hamilton was being taped for TV.
Kurt is doing his "Gotta Dance Show" in Hamilton in November and I am
really
looking forward to seeing that. I saw the original Vancouver one on TV
and
think this will be a real treat. HE IS THE BEST!!!
