Five stars for the show, but two stars for the experience.
Confession: I am not a Celine Dion fan. However, I do appreciate her musical talent.
I had the opportunity to watch her show the second day after she spent time mourning her late husband. The show opened with a tribute to him; it was a somber tone that carried throughout the evening through memories she shared along with personal family photos and home movies.
She performed her greatest hits in front of dazzling backdrops -- I swear, people almost lost control of themselves during the Titanic song. Her entire band and trio of singers were lively and didn't miss a beat or a note.
Here's where I give my experience two stars. Audience members are not allowed to take flash photography and film video. Unfortunately, I was seated nearby people who don't follow directions, as well as those who were constantly on their phones. The glow from the screens and the notification sounds were a distraction, and the ushers didn't do much resolving these problems when they occurred. There was also a moment during the show when Celine was meeting with audience members, many of whom were attempting to take selfies with her. That portion of the show was a waste of 10 minutes.
Aside from the attendees attached to their phones, I'm fortunate to have experienced "Celine," which seems like the show almost everyone wants to see while in town. Tickets are pricey, but it may be worth seeing if you're a Celine Dion fan who can tolerate digital distractions.
