EXHIBIT – Acrobatics, Dance & Art
EXHIBIT turns the old variety show into a sleek night of acrobatics, dance, and sound. The setting helps sell the idea: you arrive at House of Son Amar, a 16th-century Mallorcan estate, then move from its courtyard to the Hall of Fountains and finally the Grand Theatre. I like the grand sequence and the way the evening begins before the curtain rises.
I also like the short fountain show and the chance to have a cocktail in the historic courtyard. The main drawback is timing: the ticket may list 9:00 pm, but the full show starts around 10:15 pm. Getting a taxi afterward can also be difficult, so plan your ride home before you sit down.
Key points to know before booking
- A 16th-century arrival: Start with a cocktail in Son Amar’s old courtyard, once a center for entertainment on Mallorca.
- A fountain show before the main event: The Hall of Fountains offers a brief water and light display at about 9:00 pm.
- The full performance begins later: The main EXHIBIT show starts around 10:15 pm, despite the earlier listed start time.
- Acrobatics lead the program: Expect bold physical feats joined to choreography and a modern soundtrack.
- A polished, theatrical setting: Your visit moves through several rooms before you reach the Grand Theatre.
- A taxi warning: Finding a cab at the end may take close to an hour, so arrange a return plan in advance.
Arriving at House of Son Amar

EXHIBIT begins before you enter the theatre. House of Son Amar is a historic Mallorcan venue, and the arrival is part of the presentation. Instead of walking straight into a modern performance hall, you first enter a place shaped by centuries of local culture and entertainment.
That setting gives the evening a sense of occasion. You are not simply buying a seat for a two-hour stage show. You are arriving at a country house with a long connection to entertainment on the island, then moving through a sequence of spaces designed to build anticipation.
I would arrive early, even if you are mainly interested in the performance. The courtyard is a useful place to get your bearings, have a drink, and enjoy the architecture before the show begins. A cocktail is part of the suggested pre-show experience, though the supplied details do not state that it is included in the $117 ticket price.
The courtyard dates to the 16th century and was once described as the heartbeat of Son Amar. That gives the first part of the evening a more local feel than a standard theatre lobby. The show itself is contemporary, but the place around it connects the experience to Mallorca.

The 9:00 pm fountain display
After the courtyard, you move into the Hall of Fountains. This is where the evening’s first performance takes place, with a short water and light show designed to recall the Bellagio fountains in Las Vegas.
The display lasts about two minutes, so keep your expectations in check. It is an opening flourish, not a full-length attraction. Still, it gives you something visual to enjoy before the main doors open and helps turn the wait into part of the evening.
The timing matters here. The published start time is 9:00 pm, but the main EXHIBIT performance begins at about 10:15 pm. The earlier time appears to be when you should arrive for the fountain display and pre-show atmosphere. If you book this experience, read the timing carefully and do not assume that the headline performance starts at 9:00 pm.
That gap can work well if you enjoy a leisurely night out. You have time for the courtyard, a drink, and the fountains. If you want a compact show with no waiting, though, the long lead-in may feel excessive. I would treat the early arrival as part of the event rather than dead time.
Entering the Grand Theatre

Once the fountain presentation ends, the doors to the Grand Theatre open. You are escorted to your seat, and the entertainment begins with that transition rather than waiting for a conventional curtain call.
The theatre is where EXHIBIT shifts from historic setting to modern stage spectacle. The show is described as a new version of the classic variety format, built from acrobatics, dance, choreography, and music. The program is not presented as a single story with named characters or a traditional plot. Its appeal comes from a series of visual and physical performances held together by rhythm and staging.
That structure makes the show easy to approach. You do not need background information, knowledge of dance, or an understanding of a complicated storyline. You can simply watch the performers, follow the movement, and take in the soundtrack.
The trade-off is that a variety show may feel less emotionally focused than a play or musical. If you prefer a clear narrative, EXHIBIT may not provide what you want. If you like visual performance and changing acts, the format should suit you better.
What the acrobatics and dance add

The central draw is the combination of daring acrobatics and choreography. These are not presented as separate blocks of circus and dance. The idea is to blend physical feats into a modern stage production, with the soundtrack helping connect one moment to the next.
I like that the format gives you more than a simple display of technical skill. Acrobatics can be impressive on their own, but choreography gives the movement shape and pace. The music then adds another layer, making the performance feel designed as one evening rather than a collection of unrelated tricks.
The details of individual acts are not specified, so I would not book this expecting a particular apparatus, performer, or style of dance. The safe expectation is a polished variety performance built around athletic movement, visual staging, and contemporary music.
The phrase cutting-edge soundtrack signals a modern tone. This is not a nostalgic recreation of an old music-hall show. Instead, EXHIBIT uses the variety-show format as a base for something more current and visually driven.

Why the venue matters to the value

At $117, EXHIBIT is not a casual, low-cost evening activity. The price needs to cover more than the performance itself in your mind because the experience includes access to a historic venue, the courtyard arrival, the Hall of Fountains, and the Grand Theatre program.
I see the value most clearly if you want a full night out in one place. You arrive at an important local venue, have time before the main event, watch the fountain display, and then see a substantial stage production. The setting and pre-show sequence help distinguish it from buying a ticket for a standard theatre show.
The value is less convincing if you only care about the acrobatics and plan to arrive as late as possible. In that case, you are paying for the entire Son Amar presentation but may not care much about the courtyard or fountains.
The strongest praise for this experience focuses on its creativity, excitement, and beautiful venue. That combination matters. A technically strong performance in an ordinary room would be a different product. Here, the building and the route through it are part of what makes the night feel special.
Planning the evening around the clock
The timing requires a little thought. The stated start time is 9:00 pm, but the main show is reported to begin at 10:15 pm. Use 9:00 pm as your arrival time, not as the moment you expect the headline performance to start.
This means the evening may run well beyond the two-hour approximate duration if you count the courtyard and pre-show period. The listed duration refers to the experience as a whole, but the supplied timing shows that the event has several stages before the main performance. Leave room in your plans rather than scheduling an early dinner reservation immediately afterward.
The delay is not necessarily a problem. If you like a relaxed cocktail, a historic setting, and a short fountain show, the early period gives the night some ceremony. If you are tired, traveling with young children, or hoping to get back to your hotel quickly, the late main start deserves more attention.
Most people can participate, and no special physical participation is required from you. You sit and watch the performance. The available information does not specify seat locations, theatre layout, or special accessibility arrangements, so contact the provider if you need details beyond the general statement that most people can take part.
Solving the ride home

The most useful practical warning concerns the end of the night. It can be hard to find a taxi after the show, and one report describes a wait of close to an hour.
I would not leave your return trip to chance. Arrange a pickup in advance if that option is available to you, or ask about transport before the performance starts. A beautiful evening can lose some of its shine if you finish it standing outside with no clear way back.
The supplied details do not confirm a shuttle, private transfer, or taxi rank. Do not assume that one is included. The provider is Son Amar, and the meeting point is the House of Son Amar, but the information provided does not name a transport service connected with the ticket.
This is especially important because the main performance starts late. After 10:15 pm, even a short wait may feel longer if you have already spent the evening at the venue. Make the journey home part of your booking plan.
Who will enjoy EXHIBIT most

I would recommend EXHIBIT to you if you want a polished night of live entertainment and enjoy physical performance more than a conventional play. It should suit couples, friends, and anyone looking for an evening activity with a sense of occasion.
It also works well for people who like architecture and atmosphere. The 16th-century courtyard and Hall of Fountains give you more to look at than a normal theatre entrance. You get a gradual build from historic Mallorca to modern stage spectacle.
Families may find the format accessible because there is no complicated story to follow, but the available details do not give an age recommendation. If you are considering the show for children, check directly with Son Amar before booking, especially because the main performance begins late.
I would be more cautious if you dislike waiting, want a clearly stated start time, or need an easy taxi connection after the show. The 9:00 pm arrival and 10:15 pm performance time are important details, not minor footnotes.
Cancellation and booking details

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the local start time. Cancellations made within 24 hours are not refundable, and changes inside that period are not accepted.
Confirmation is provided at booking. The experience is listed at approximately two hours, although your full evening will include the early arrival period, fountain show, and wait before the main performance.
The price is $117. I would book at that level if you value the complete setting and a special night out, not simply a short acrobatic show. The venue, pre-show spaces, fountain display, and live production all contribute to the experience.
Should you book EXHIBIT at Son Amar?
Book EXHIBIT if you want a stylish, full-evening performance in a memorable Mallorcan setting. The creative mix of acrobatics, dance, choreography, and contemporary music is the main reason to go, while the courtyard and fountains give the night a strong sense of place.
Think twice if you need a quick 9:00 pm show or an effortless taxi ride afterward. Arrive knowing that 9:00 pm is the pre-show time, expect the main performance around 10:15 pm, and arrange your return before you take your seat. With those details handled, EXHIBIT offers a distinctive night of live entertainment for visitors willing to pay for atmosphere as well as stage action.
