Located
forward, with its lower level being on deck three and spanning three
decks, is the Alhambra Theatre with a guest capacity of 1,320.
Each evening there is live entertainment here whether it be a musician,
comedian, or one of the production shows by the Royal Caribbean singers
and dancers. Quite often, the main attraction in the show lounge is the stage curtain. On Independence of the Seas, the main stage curtain is 'Flamenco', mixed media, by In Art Designs and Produced by Olympus Flag & Banner, Inc. The curtain was printerd on Prestige Velour in thriteen separate panels using a dye sublimation printing process. Panel sizes range from twenty one inches to fifty two inches to accommodate the design, and all panels are twenty eight feet long. The final size of the curtain is twenty eight feet tall by forty six feet wide. After printing, each panel is hand beaded with sequins and jewels by a team of talented sewers. Over twenty five thousand bugle beads, fifteen thousand sequins, and five hundred Austrian crystals were used on the curtain. All beads and crystals are individually triple knotted and tied. In total, over twenty one weeks were used to produce the curtain. In particular for first time cruisers, guests will not believe their eyes upon stepping into Studio B, where they will find an onboard ice skating rink, where professional ice shows take place and are truly a 'must see'. Other activities may also take place here in Studio B such as game shows, parties, cooking demonstrations, and more. It is an understatement to say that the ice shows are just impressive; the incredible shows feature a cast of professional skaters from around the World. Due to the popularity of these shows, complimentary tickets are sometimes needed to present at the door. If this is the case, guests may visit Guest Services or check the Cruise Compass for details.When the professionals
aren't practicing or putting on one of their shows, there are open
skating hours for guests. There is no charge to use the rink, no
reservations are required, and all levels of skating are welcome.
Skates are also provided. |
