Saturday was a big day for us, it was Ashton’s first time to see Barney live! Little did he know until we entered a theater full of kids and in front of us, was Barney in “doll” mode waiting for our imagination to make him real 🙂 We got there just in time about 10 minutes before the show and I was really pleased the kids did not have to wait long or else…
Ashton was obviously overwhelmed and in disbelief, when Baby Bop and BJ appeared I could sense he wanted to cry tears of joy! Seriously! And serious was Ashton during the entire show but not during the half-time break when he dances to Barney songs while waiting. I was anxious to bring him alone, as in without any help as it was just me and Ashton sitting there. Thank God he was behaved the entire time and the show’s length was just right.
The setup was simple and the story revolved around visiting the perfectly purple planet where the King and Queen awaits Barney and friends. I like the stage setup for the purple palace which reminded me of French furniture, especially the royal thrones. When Barney and friends started to sing the I love you song, the toddlers went awww and I even saw a baby crying because Barney had said good bye. Ashton on the other hand, was excited to get out of the theater and boast of his experience.
He was really hyper inside the car and when we got home, the trip was worth it and we can’t wait to watch another show next time!
