This is somewhat different from your typical Cirque show. The story is about a pair of sisters that are seperated by some evil warlords and how they manage to reunite and fight those evil forces. It can be a little difficult at times to follow the story, but the theatrics and visuals are awesome. The stage itself is wondrous the way it moves and tilts while the performers are on it. The show is not all serious as there is also a small segment featuring some sea creatures and some bumbling fools. There are also some features of the show which I have seen in other Cirque shows, so some of it should be familiar.
There really is no such thing as a bad seat in this theater. It is set up to where you get a great visual from anywhere. In fact, I think the further back you sit, the better. Make sure you check on Cirque's website and MGM's website for ticket specials - I was able to get tickets for $66/each on the 12th row.
