Jurassic World Live Tour, an exhilarating and unpredictable live, family entertainment experience that brings the wonder and thrills of Jurassic World to generations of fans returns to Amway Center from January 13 – 16. I’m honored to attend as a Feld Ambassador*.
With unrivaled arena production quality, Jurassic World comes to life against a backdrop of captivating scenery where dinosaurs from the iconic franchise, including fan-favorite
Velociraptor Blue and a Tyrannosaurus rex more than 40 feet in length, take center stage. The production features more than 24 film-accurate, life-sized dinosaurs, with scale, speed and ferocity, operated by animatronics and performers.

Though not a “real” Jurassic World animatronics dinosaur operator,
I was allowed to play one, if only for a few minutes.


Jurassic World’s unmistakable score combined with projection and practical scenery transforms the arena into the dense jungles of Isla Nublar, where real Gyrospheres roll through the valley and scientists work to unravel a corrupt plan and save anew dinosaur from a terrible fate. With pulse-pounding stunts and an original, authentic storyline, this show is guaranteed to make memories that will last another 65 million years.

Mongolian riders begin the show by sending arrows flying across the arena sky. This all-female troupe displays their skills in one of the most unique acts this year, performing a series of tricks and maneuvers atop elegant two-hump camels.

Nuclear Cowboyz — Freestyle Motocross Show Heads for Amway

Nuclear Cowboyz LogoThe Nuclear Cowboyz freestyle motocross show will hit the Amway Center for the first time ever March 8-9, 2014.

My first introduction to the show was at the Monster Jams show last month. I spent most of the brief preview covering my eyes, wondering if their moms knew how dangerous the tricks are that their sons are performing! Little did I know that it was going to be more than exhibition jumping… WAY more. (Thanks Feld Entertainment, by the way, for inviting us to attend so we could review this explosive event!)

Shaolin WarriorsNuclear Cowboyz is a motocross stunt show infused with pyrotechnics, heart-pounding music, laser lights and more. There are martial artists, dancers, heart-pounding music and a good-v-evil plot-line woven to create a motocross Production featuring the Shaolin Kung Fu Warriors. In its 5th year, is like no other freestyle motocross event you’ve ever seen. Instead of being a “Circus of the Sun,” Nuclear Cowboyz is what I’d like to call a Cirque du Nuit Moto  (Circus of the Night Motorcycle). If you’re expecting to watch “just” a parade of Superman seat grabs and whips (although those are exciting, too!), you’ll have expectations that are way off!

2014-02-23 14.14.27This arena-based show features the world’s top freestyle motocross performers, including multi-time X Games medalists Jeremy “Twitch” Stenberg, Taka Higashino, Mike Mason, Matt Buyten, Ronnie Faisst and Colten Moore as well as world-class freestylers such as Derek Garland, Jimmy Fitzpatrick, Nick Dunne, Brody Wilson, Marco Picado and more. Stenberg says he is “amped to throw down [his] trick arsenal…”.

Check out Mike Mason’s “No Handed Back Flip,” one of the 1,000 tricks you’ll see at the show:

Showtimes are Saturday 7:30 p.m. and Sunday 2:00 p.m.

I think my oldest “kid” (husband!) had the most fun at this event, thanks to beautiful dancers and heavy metal music in addition to skilled martial artists and world-class X Games and Moto X athletes. My little guy was a bit overwhelmed (especially by the pyrotechnics), but every other kid in the place seemed to be having a blast from beginning to end. I would have turned down the soundtrack more so the announcer could be understood clearly, but all-in-all it was an exciting production. I’ve never seen anything like it—can you imagine an ATV doing flips while the driver is on fire?! (And yes, I did uncover my eyes for MOST of the show when I wasn’t imagining my kid up there defying gravity!)Disclosure: Our family received tickets to the event in exchange for this honest review.

Circus Legends

Ringling-ClownWhen I was in 5th grade, I won an opportunity to “be” in the circus. I was part of a “clown parade” and we traipsed through the stage smiling and laughing while the professional clowns did the “heavy lifting” of crowd pleasing. It was so much fun. I still get excited when the circus comes to town!

The Greatest Show on Earth, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® brings the unbelievable to Children Of All Ages in an all-new show — LEGENDSSM  to the Amway Center January 9-12.

In what’s sure to be tons of family fun, amazing performers from around the globe will perform awe-inspiring feats of daring, spectacles of strength and thrills of wonder.
