As someone who grew up primarily in the 2000s, I cannot believe how many important anniversaries to me have been hitting the big 2-0 lately… but it’s certainly making me realize time is actually passing. One of them is Nickelodeon’s Avatar: The Last Airbender series. The show (that’s streaming with a Netflix subscription nowadays) first aired in early 2005 before concluding after three seasons in mid-2008. I was in the perfect age bracket to be glued to my TV screen over the fantasy action series, and over the weekend, I got to feel like I was experiencing it for the first time at the Avatar: The Last Airbender 20th Anniversary Concert.
I wasn’t sure what I was getting into when I walked into Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre on Sunday night, but now that I have seen the unique performance, I want to talk about the emotional journey I went on, and why I’d recommend it to fellow fans.
