omg, *so* much better than ka! i been waiting to watch this show for years, ever since it debuted on broadway. and it didnt disappoint! the dancing was exciting and beautiful and costumery(?) was sooo interesting and creative! so much goin on all the time with the colors and action...u'll be entertained if u like people watching bc of the number of characters and their individual dances, etc. it kept me wide awake even after one of those sleepless nites in vegas ;). as far as musicals go, it's a 4.5.
