Medieval Times ruined by constant interuptions ?

Went to the Medieval Times March 2006 and the whole family absolutely loved it great show as well as very nice food (and cheap evening out tickets then were 拢14 each)



We went back in Sept 2007 and the whole evening was ruined by interuptions during the show.



Yes I appreciate that they need to make money but -



When you walk in your made have your photo taken as you enter and during the show in the dark nagged to buy a bad superimposed picture of yourself and they are not keen if you try to not have the photo taken.



Paying upgrades to sit nearer the front when I found the family 3 rows back after paying for the upgrade



and with people trying to sell flashing lights and the servers who are giving you your food it is so difficult to see the show and the whole evening was spoiled - Anyone else got stories of other dinner shows

Next time, try Hoop Dee Doo Revue.





You still have the ';photo'; session, but no one disturbs the show as all food is served between the acts of the show.

We have been to MT several times and always enjoy the show and food. It isn%26#39;t the Ritz or a Broadway show but, then it is supposed to be set in Medieval Times. I would guess at joisting tournaments, etc. in Medival Times there would have been people selling gruel, mead, etc. walking around during the proceedings?





Don%26#39;t know how the pictures and flashing lights fit in with that thought process other than making them some extra money and providing a memento of your visit.





We have never had a problem enjoying the show due to the servers, sellers, etc. Usually, the server will happily take your picture at your seat for you with your camera if you ask them.





Of course, we have no problem saying no if we don%26#39;t like their pictures and we never buy the light up toys. Usually the sellers either kneel down or keep moving to avoid blocking diners views for more than a second or two.





We have been to Dixie Stampede (a similar format) and had no issues there either.





Capone%26#39;s is a little different, still a dinner show, but the performers/wait staff comes out into the audience and gets the audience involved a bit.





Not sure what you meant about being in the third row? Not everyone can sit front row center, the center rows up to about five or six I think are considered upgrade seating?




Hi, We went last year and it would of been ok apart from a young girl who screamed her head off every 30 seconds like she was being attacked, right in my partners ear, after kindly asking her dad to quiet her down and an hr later of ear ache my partner had had enough and told her to be quiet himself! lol.



I would%26#39;nt bother paying extra to get near the front, we where in the 2nd line back in the middle and we got the re 15 mins early, it was the same with all the shows, but I would say this is the best dinner show out of the lot as long as you have a car to get back, as it%26#39;s a bit out of the way. hope this helps?
