The talent of this Cirque show definitely keeps it at the same insane tier of physical stunts held by older players of the Cirque game... although external matters keep the show towards the bottom.
PERFORMANCE
All the acts here are glorified Circus acts taken to the next level. Seriously--you have your trapeze artists, tightrope walkers, flag twirlers... but they do wayyyy more daring stunts than your average Ringling Brother. Although each act would start out with my mind saying "Sigh... I've seen that before" the act would always end with me thinking, "Freakin crazy! That was brilliant!" Several performance artists actually had me fearful for their lives
OTHER FACTORS
The stage sometimes swallowed up the performers and often distracted rather than supported the acts. The idea of using screens at the rear and border of the stage was brilliant--if used properly. Instead, slithering cartoon snakes and mini replicas of the performers flying through the screen made it just seem like a high schooler had created the background and was just eager to show off his capabilities.
EXPERIENCE
Via a Las Vegas resident's discount, our $150 ticket seats at the smack-dab center became $65. Sweetums! Price aside, I would recommend other Cirque shows before this one because their overall deliverance packages are more unique, smooth, and breathtaking.
