I agree that the choreography, aesthetic design, LED use, underlying  
historical concepts, and general production values (including what  
ever computer generated material), et al rank extremely high.

Yet, the enigmatic paradox of how this (or any other) "SHOW" fits  
within a world at war, numerous countries (including the one  
producing the show) with starving citizens and lack of human rights  
remains a topic in need of serious discussion.

Entertainment at the expense of life and liberty?

Fond regards,
George
