    So would it be bad to see The Rose show on Scarlett Night? It’s a shame it starts at 8 instead of 7 as otherwise would be able to go from The Rose to the Opening Event?

      On Scarlet Night it’s actually designed as an alternative for those who don’t want to do Scarlet Night, you would likely miss the vast majority of Scarlet Night outside of the pool party.
