  • So, let's get a few things sorted out first. This show has been changed twice, totaling 3 different shows, my review is of the latest show. For the record, Le Rêve is NOT a Cirque du Soleil show. Let me repeat this, Le Rêve is NOT a Cirque du Soleil production. Yes Cirque currently has 7 productions in Las Vegas, but this is NOT one of them. I feel a few too many people have had their hand in the artistic development of this production which is why it has become such a snore. Believe me, I tried... I tried to enjoy it, but it was lacking in many areas. Shows such as these are indeed about the acts, but the details are what add to the character and enjoyment of such performance. For instance, in the current production, a guy and girl and seemingly on a date at the beginning. The guy kneels down and the girl turns around while he's whisked off the stage. As the turns around, he's gone. The acts and performances are what seem to be her thoughts during those critical moments of her being with him or not. At the end, when he's brought back in, he is kneeling on the wrong knee! Such a subtle change ruins the flow and realness of the performance. I may be overly critical, but true artists know the vision of a production and ascertain such small details are solid. As for the actual performances, most were decent and visually appealing, but there were issues with them. For instance, the dancers, although choreographed together, were not solid as a unit. Having one person slightly off can be undetected, but not 20-40% of the group. The synchronized swimming was one area this was noticeable, which by the way there were too many swimmers to make the act even look nice. The other aspect of the performance is that there are small side-acts taking place that are completely distracting for the main act. Cirque knows how to pull this off with many things going on, yet the audience knows where to look and when. I missed part of a breath-taking high dive because I was looking at some actor doing headstands... Le Rêve completely misses this mark. Having Dragone's background and experience at Cirque du Soleil from 1985 to 1999 is what convinced me to see Le Rêve, but it seems as if Wynn himself has had too much of a hand in this show and has degraded what could be a great performance piece. Sadly, I wouldn't recommend this show to anyone.
