The giant puppetry on ice was beyond fantastic, I'm so glad we have the
artists to produce it and the technology to have been able to experience
it "live."  But am I the only one who found the constant chattering
commentary annoying and distracting? (except, of course, McKay's
tongue-tied description of shadow puppetry, which was innocently amusing!)

I prefer to absorb art with accompaniment when choreographed in, and not
have every artistic nuance pointed out to me by commentators who have no
clue as how to experience a theatrical performance.

There, I feel better now.
