Booking tickets was very convenient and fast, but I still had to wait a little while to check out the tickets on site. Maybe it was because I just met a new person and was not familiar with him...

I went there with high expectations, as the Sleep No More schedule was the most important schedule of the day. I intentionally applied for Package A and waited an hour before because I was afraid I would be late, so I went in first. They said there would be a lot of walking, but the audience really chased me around, so I had to walk around a lot. They said it would be held in Korea soon, so I really want to experience how different it is from Shanghai.

I checked my ticket screen and name at the counter and was able to enter! I recommend wearing comfortable shoes as you will be walking around a lot.

This is an amazing show. It has similarities with other aerobics but with a story plot. I watched many similar shows but this one did give me pleasant surprises in the use of the moving stage. I places the order about 1 week before the show and I received confirmation about 3 days before the show date. I was placed on row 6 of zone a which was very close to the stage. highly recommended !!

It's a very unique restaurant, and the food is also very good! It's really great to be paired with a drama performance. I like this restaurant and I will recommend it to my friends.

Beautiful gallery. can get VERY busy and you’ll need to wait in line to get in. Great exhibition. Make sure you only use the weekday ticket on weekdays only. You cannot use it on a weekend.
