Went to the show last night in Orlando - for awhile I felt like I was 8 years old again. Its definitely worth going if they come to your area!
We were sitting on the floor about 10 rows back and the sound was incredible. Hearing many of the popular Star Wars themes from the series performed by a full orchestra and choir is just mind blowing. It's stirring and a great way to expose your kids or people who haven't heard a full orchestral performance to that style of music.
Anthony Daniels is your live host and narrator for the event and he's great. Definitely brought a smile to my face when he came out since I forgot he was the narrator, does an excellent job too.
The accompanying video is good for the most part, although there's an issue or two with inserting Ep 1-3 clips into sections dealing with Ep 4-6 which kinda bothered me.
The museum aspect has a few good costumes on display and our local 501st and Rebel Legion were on hand. They were sparse - about 5-6 original stormtroopers, a good original Boba Fett, a Jango Fett, a good Vader, 3-4 scout troopers, a teenaged Padme and Anakin and a jedi dressed in black robes but with a blue blade. The displays were good, some opportunities to get a good close up look at the jedi robes. The weapons were all in 1 medium sized case which was highly reflective so I wasn't able to get any good shots. :(
