Believe? Better read and believe every negative remark on this show. It's just awful. The theatre is fancy and neat and the stage props are fantastic...and that is where it ends. Here is a preview: See Criss in a theatre on a screen while he dangles from a helicopter with four metal hooks pierced through his skin BECAUSE HE IS A MAGICIAN AND HE SAYS HE CAN LEVITATE!...
The theatre was so emtpy they moved us from section 202 to the sixth row from stage. 10 audience (placed actors) members took the stage for the first half hour, the show was riddled with sexual messages geared towards pedophilia, and Criss after sawing a woman in half, comments that he only keeps the bottom halves. Of course there were the crying women who would just "Die if he would kiss me". Naturally...what else would an obnoxious arrogant "Criss Angel Mindfreak Believe".
Yes there were some dissagpearing and reappearing stunts and some birds for about 20 minutes of the show. The rest is filler and half of it is what you already saw on TV. Criss struts around trying to act like a rock star with (and I love metal music), but it was for real too loud and had nothing to do with anything.
Of course he did all the "Must Do's"...props to servicemen...a bit of "look how charitable I am and you should donate too". What a nasty mark for Cirque De Soleil.
