This Cirque du Soleil show was comedic but it lacked a true story line. I too was confused about the large snail at the end. Like, WTH? Ok, a big snail, so what.
The tickets were pretty cheap. I think there was a special online so we didn't have to pay regular price. If you enjoy watching Cirque du Soleil shows, be sure to sign up for the Cirque Club. You will receive discounts on tickets (up to 50% off) and advance notice when tickets go on sale for their tour shows.
Overall, good show. I think the water shows like Le Reve or O are much better.
