| - This was a fantastic show. It plays with the ideas of earth, air, water, and fire using the amazingly versatile stage, which splits into different sections and raises and lowers to give either solid ground, a thin film of water, or water deep enough to dive into from the air. My favorite parts were the trapeze acts, my least favorite were the clowns. I nearly nodded off during one of their scenes, but the rest more than made up for it. I was very happy with our second row balcony seats, which allowed for a good overall view of all the different things happening concurrently on stage and above the stage. Some of the people in the orchestra section got climbed over and splashed on by water effects, so as I'm not big on unintended participation in a show I was quite relieved to be way out of reach.
Before the show I was a bit worried about getting the tickets - they warn you that in order to get your prepaid tickets you must have the confirmation printout and ID, and they reserve the right to resell your tickets if you haven't picked them up by an hour before showtime.
