| - I had a friend visiting from the east coast that wanted to see a Cirque du Soleil show. Opting for the local deal, we decided on Zumanity on a Monday night. I did not do my research on the show so wasn't sure what to expect, except some nudity warned by the ticket lady. I loved the view of walking in and seeing the performers standing at the entrance. We headed straight for the bar, then were escorted in to the front row. Still not sure how we managed that but I'll never turn down a good seat. Our view was decent and we were very involved in the show.
This is definitely a show that all inhibitions should be left at the door. I'll be the first to admit that I enjoy a good raunchy show, which this definitely is!! I don't get embarrassed easily but I had a few blushing moments. The cast interacted with us, talking directly to us and the occasional knee touching which we didn't mind.
I have to agree with other reviews, that the show lacked complicated acrobatics and stunts. The show was filled with boobs, butts, erotic moves, sex toys, drag and lots of laughs. We did notice a few people walking out. This is a fun show that isn't' meant for the easily embarrassed, prude or close minded. Like other Cirque du Soleil shows, I will return to this show again....at the local deals rate. If Zumanity were to add in more acrobatics and stunts, they would have received 5 stars from me. Doesn't quite compare to other Cirque du Soleil shows, but definitely one to enjoy for a fun night out!!
