I honestly cannot add anything more than the 1300+ reviews but I wanted to get my thoughts out there. And 3 letters instantly come to mind....OMG.
I have seen 2 other Cirque shows before and I heard this is the creme de la creme of Cirque shows. Knowing this, I felt ok about splurging a little to see it.
I could write an entire review just on the stage. The way it maneuvered and rose and lowered and was a platform then a shallow pool, then a deep pool, and back to a platform was simply amazing. It was actually the highlight of the show for me.
The storyline is basic but easy to follow and it entertains the audience when one of the actors dressed in street clothes joins the show. The various costumes are simply stunning and perfectly compliment the theme of the show. The talent is unparalleled in their abilities to do things us average joes can only dream about. In fact, my back ached just watching them.
This show is probably the best I've ever seen.. You are so overwhelmed by what you are seeing that it takes your breath away. I would go again in a heartbeat.
