Aria is a fabulous resort and the Cirque du Soleil Zarkana theater is one of the best we have been to in Vegas and deserves 5 stars. However we are being generous to give this 1 star. Don't waste your money on this boring, mindless theatrical disaster. We have seen Cirque shows going back to the beginning when you sat on wooden benches in tents and have enjoyed everyone with the exception of this production. The description on their web page reads in part "Chaos and Craziness" and that is how you will feel, chaos of the senses and crazy for paying for a ticket. The acrobatics which are phenomenal in other productions are almost non existent in this one. The music is horrendous, the female lead singer screeches her way through every song. The clowns are not funny, the costumes in one set look like something out of a radiation disaster. We left the theater totally baffled thinking that this was a cruel joke on all of us who have followed Cirque for years. Reputation alone should not be the reason to go see something, wish someone would have written a review prior to our spending money on this nightmare. Use the money you would have paid for this show to go see "O" which is one of the best Cirque productions ever!
