  • I have never seen a Cirque show, but I have seen FAR more than my fair share of Broadway performances throughout the country. While selecting which cirque show to attend, my first choice Ka was unfortunately dark on the chosen night. Damn. With my remaining options, I had it narrowed to Mystere and Love. I figured-you only live one-bite the bullet, pay the major ticket price, and go for the one with the music you know rocks. This show was a feast for the eyes to be certain. That said, it was also a visual clusterfuck. Again, since I haven't been to a Cirque show before it is difficult to know if they're all like this, but it just didn't seem like there was the high quantity of high flying antics and acrobatics as those that I've seen on TV. Most of the aerialists were in harnesses and were more doing ballet than what I would typically associate with aerialists. That said, the athletic ability of the artists is undeniable. Absolutely stunning dancers and displays of strength. The dancing and choreography was inspired, however I have to admit that I was a little disappointed. Since I was expecting more cirus and less Twyla Tharp, I felt a little bit burned by the ticket price. It was exactly twice what I've ever spent to see the best broadway productions with the most renound performers in the country and sometimes even in the world, and worked on by the most acclaimed choreographers. And really? I spend $140 and still get limited view seating? The layout of the entire theater is in a way that no matter what, you will be in a position to miss some of the action that is happening. I'm glad I paid the extra 30 bucks, however painful it was, to get these seats though-because the limited view balcony seats looked awful and like you wouldn't see anythign at all. The sound design and light design were amazing. Very innovative use of stagecraft like I would have expected from a cirque show. All in all very enjoyable performance once I adjusted to seeing more of a ballet than a high flying show. Favorite scenes included: Octupus's Garden, Here comes the Sun, Lady Madonna (the rainboots were precious) and the opening :)
