Oceania
Cruises Entertainment
|
The
ships of Oceania offer large, purpose-built
entertainment venues of a surprising scale, given
these ships’ comparatively small size. Though not
large enough to mount full-production Broadway or
Las Vegas-style shows, they’re perfect for
cabaret-style performances, concert pianist
presentations, dance troupes, and local and regional
folk entertainment.

The
Lounge offers a single deck of tiered seating with
chairs, sofas and banquettes. It’s here where the
“headline” entertainers appear. Besides offering
excellent orchestral music – the ship employs a 12-piece
orchestra – or comedic presentations, Oceanic recognizes
that their guests also appreciate a mix of enriching
guest lecturers. Authors, Broadway and Hollywood
celebrities, politicians and historians are frequent
invitees of The Lounge.

Horizons,
the ship’s alternative entertainment venue, lends itself
to jazz jam sessions and cabaret performers. Late night
disco dancing is available here, too, and there’s even
the occasional karaoke night! Classical string quartets
perform throughout the ship, particularly during early
evening before dinner. But entertainment isn’t confined
to the indoors; Oceania cruises often offer a classical
“concert under the stars.”

The
Casino is small but richly appointed. Despite its
size it still manages to include a roulette wheel,
blackjack tables, poker tables and several banks of slot
machines. And it also includes one of the ship’s “hot
spots” – Martini’s. This handsome, wood-paneled
bar serves up Martinis as you like them. Located midway
between the Grand Dining Room and The Lounge, Martini’s
makes for a great meet-and-connect place.

The
Grand Bar, at the entrance to the Grand Dining Room,
is another of the ship’s “hot spots,” and for the very
same reason Martini’s is so popular: location, location,
location! In keeping with the ship’s overall décor, the
atmosphere is cushion-y elegant, with crystal
chandeliers, rich brocaded fabrics, and wood paneling
throughout.
