I went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised how good the show was since there were so many mixed reviews. We were 3 rows from the back and we still had a great view. Criss seems like a very down to earth and humble guy. He is very entertaining and even dances! Loved all aspects of the show, like the dancers, pyro, music, illusions. Some of the humor was a bit raunchy and unnecessary, esp with some kids in the audience so that is why I took off 1 star. For me, definitely better than some of the boring Cirque shows.
