Norwegian Has First Show Celebrating Prince

Norwegian Cruise Line® (NCL), the innovator in global cruise travel, today revealed “Revolution: A Celebration of Prince” and “Elements: The World Expanded” as the two new exclusive entertainment offerings set to debut aboard the Company’s next-generation vessel, Norwegian AquaTM, in April 2025.

With more variety of entertainment options including only-on-NCL productions and returning guest favorites, there will be something for everyone to enjoy on board. The brand-new and immersive Prince tribute show, “Revolution: A Celebration of Prince,” developed in partnership with Prince Legacy, LLC and Primary Wave Music, will honor and celebrate the Oscar® winning, seven-time Grammy® Award-winning and 38-time Grammy® nominated artist during a concert-like experience featuring the music icon’s chart-topping hits, including “Let’s Go Crazy,” “Little Red Corvette,” “Delirious,” “Purple Rain,” and more. 

NCL is also taking its highest guest-rated show in its history, “Elements,” and enhancing it with new surprises in “Elements: The World Expanded.” Blending acrobatics, magic and intrigue, this show draws inspiration from the four elements – earth, wind, water and fire – for an astonishing display of unexpected delights. 

Both productions were developed by NCL’s in-house production team at the Creative Studios by Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings in Tampa, Fla., in partnership with Patricia Wilcox, an award-winning Broadway choreographer, director and long-time NCL partner. From original costumes to one-of-a-kind entertainment, the Creative Studios has produced in-house shows since 2008.

“For decades, NCL has set the standard in entertainment at sea, with worldclass productions and talent that rivals those found in major cities like Las Vegas, New York City and London,” said David J. Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line. “For Norwegian Aqua, we are thrilled to build on our legacy of excellence in entertainment to offer our guests more options across the ship, including exclusive original productions that cannot be seen anywhere else on land or at sea.”

Other new and returning entertainment venues and shows include The Aqua Theater & Club, “The Improv at Sea” comedy club, “The Price is Right LIVE on NCL” game show and “Syd Norman’s Presents: Rumours” – a Fleetwood Mac tribute experience that will be offered in the Aqua Theater & Club to accommodate more guests for this always jam-packed show.
