My husband and I attended SOI in Philadelphia last night(2/25). We enjoyed on-ice seats for the 2nd time in 10 years of attending the show. We rate this years show, Imagination, as one of the 3 top shows of the 11 we've seen. I really cannot say anything negative about it at all!
It was great to see Sarah skating again. She skates with such joy and grace....I've seen all the gossip about her weight and have to agree, she is definitely a bit bigger than the other skaters. But IMO it didn't interfere with her skating.
It was also wonderful to see Katia Gordeeva again. Both her programs were nice. Heartburn was a fun and flirty number that she did really well with.
Alexei's scarf hanging pre-lude to Passion was amazing. He looked in perfect control of it all.
The only somewhat disappointing thing about it was that Steven and also Kyoko and John only skated one solo each...and as always, the show is over with much quicker than I want it to be!
