    I knew y'all had to put a lot of work into those shows but hadn't any idea how the logistics of it actually took place. Thanks for taking us along.

    Gosh all of you are amazing!! I still remember how happy I was as a guest when I was watching ShowGirl two months ago, I had a FUNtastic day! It was such an incredible show. As a guest I want you to know that we love the performace and I appreciate the hard work that each one of you always do to entertain the guests. Thanksss for sharing this with us!
    I’m so glad that I found your channel days after I sailed with a Royal Caribbean cruise back then and I enjoy watching your vids until now ofc I’d like to see more! Good job Kristine! *giving you hugs❤

    Thanks for sharing. This is great seeing what happens behind the scenes. As a cruiser, I really appreciate all the hard work you and your fellow crewmates do every night. This vlog is also great for someone who wants to do this on a cruise ship to see you really have to love and enjoy the job.

    Watching your shows, I guess I've been on the wrong cruise lines. After 24 cruises on five different lines, I've never
    seen shows as extravagant as yours. It truly looks like Vegas. All the performers are amazing and they all seem to
    love their jobs. I'll be giving RCI a closer look now. (Perhaps during your next contract.) Bet your mom loved the show.

    WOW !!! Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories of our cruise in June 2023 and indeed this channel. I really loved both your shows but even more now that I know the cast. You truly have an amazing gift not just as a dancer performer,you have amazing presenting skills. 2 questions Do you have to provide your own make up and how often do your costumes get washed ? PS your Mom & Dad must be super proud. Also who s minding the dog . Thanks again for videos Shay.

    • @kristinekugler

    I'm that blind person that commented on your cabin tour. I just wanted to say I was listening around 5:00 and just trying to imagine in my head the movement of your feet since I heard you tapping really fast. It is definitely a talent you and others have!
    Also, the song around that time used to be what Super K-Mart used for their commercials in the 90's LOL!

    Kristine! What a cool video. The logistical maze of the backstage area, with all the presets in different locations. Amazing!
    Two questions:
    1) where were you in the very first part of the video? Did you get a cabin upgrade!?!
    2) if your contract is coming to an end … what’s next? Another ship contract? On to bigger and better things?
    Love your videos.

    Newby to your channel. This was fascinating. & fun to see.
    1.How often do you have to perform in a week or per passenger cruise?
    2. Do they make you keep a certain weight or tell you to loose weight as a dancer?
    Sorry if you've already answered these questions in a past video. 😊

    • @kristinekugler
      @kristinekugler  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Currently we are on a rotation of a 7 day itinerary so we perform our 2 shows on 2 nights of the week, so it is very chill!! Other ships that are on 3-4 day cruises perform 4 nights of the week, etc!

    • @kristinekugler
      @kristinekugler  ปีที่แล้ว

      If someone is out of the show (sickness or injury) we have to change the spacing of some numbers and sometimes have different people go in and out of certain numbers! It’s like a whole equation to make the show still look cohesive if we have someone out :)

    That countdown board made me wonder.why do they rotate show crews every few months? Perhaps people do like to be on land for a while?😊
    Since you now know the shows, would you have to audition again after this contract? You could do the same shows again and not have to rehearse again. Or would you prefer something else first, just for change?
    RCA has plenty of ships, surely enough to keep you busy 😅

    • @kristinekugler

      We trained for 2 months at the rehearsal studios and then 1 month on the stage to make sure shows are perfect when we open the shows for an audience! … but bloopers happen every show, we’re human!!
