"The production was beyond anything I'd ever experienced before!"

The production was beyond anything i'd ever experienced before! Not only was the stage awesome on all 3 sides, it was used so well by the actors and animals. Every single performer was top notch, and the costumes were gorgeous. I'd love to know how the horses and people who went up the theatre's aisles got back to the stage area so quickly! And the elephant! Wow! I must say that the management of the bathroom line was wonderful. Even though it was long, it moved quickly.

"This was a phenomenal show."

This was a phenomenal show. We have watched two sight and sound theater shows, moses being the other one, and each one were spectacular. Well worth the price. We got ground floor seats, which were nice, but seats higher (even on the ground floor), would have enabled a better view of the side stages. Overall we were very pleased with our experience, and recommend this place to anyone. Cannot wait to see the showing of david.

When the curtains opened, they kept opening and opening and opening. The stage was 270 degrees, surrounding us on three sides, comprising over 11,000 square feet. The stage was a fanciful reproduction of the ancient persian city of susa. And it was breathtaking. The attention to detail was impressive. We learned that each production at the sight & sound theatre takes nearly four years to build. The set lighting changed as buildings rolled out, rolled back, rotated 360 degrees, and rose magically from the floor to drop back down later during the show. All seamlessly. Actors occupied all parts of the set in magnificent, colorful, bejeweled costumes as the audience, in unison, would twist in the direction of the key action and dialog. I knew the story, of course, and i’m always wary of ideological productions, especially bible stories, where the message is often more important to the producer than the execution. But in this case, the playwright(s) did a great job, adding fun dialog and beautiful songs accompanied by graceful and energetic dancing, excellent acting, and even live animals that were paraded across the stage and through the audience. This show was the most elaborate and beautiful production we've ever seen. Keep in mind we've seen shows on broadway and in las vegas.

Queen esther turned out to be much better than expected. The power of the holy spirit was in abundance during the show, and we loved how the characters were very in to their part so, even tho there was some creative license in places, it felt like the possibilities the real people must have felt could have happened in their given situations. It was so wonderful when an animal did something not rehearsed it was treated just lightly enough to bring great joy to this event. I am hoping our whole family will be able to see it in the future. Thank you for all your giftedness that has blessed so many who have come to your theater to get ever closer to the almighty father

This production blew everything out of the water. It was amazing. The music, the voices, the costumes, the stage changes of different areas. I was a little disappointed about how close we were to the stage, but it was fanatic. I think anyone who hadn't ever heard about the bible story would have truly enjoyed that show. They followed the story very close and relayed the subject of the story well. This day, august 10th, was our 55 wedding anniversary and we couldn't have had a better gift. Wonderful! We didn't take many pictures of the area because i have too many pictures now. We do have past pictures of the area that i cherish.

The presentation was exceptional! The music and the acting was flawless. The stage is incredible, with homes rotating and opening to show the inside, while the acting & singing continues. The actors, including the horses & doves go out into the audience, bringing the action into the middle of the crowd. We are encouraged to applaud and boo the parts we like or dislike, and we did! The story of esther is a great old testament story of having faith in god, and trusting in his care, even when things seem the darkest. The 2.5 hour duration of the play flew by, and we were captivated by the action, and the various story lines within the play, including the flashback or two. Very wonderfully done! I have already recommended the play to friends in st. Louis.

Every show at sight & sound is stunning. Esther is no exception! Every show sells out, so call early. I especially love how they give background for those who may not understand the significance of the storyline. Esther is a story of light triumphing over darkness, and makes you want to cheer again and again.
