"Opium" was one of the better Las Vegas Strip shows we've seen. Rude, crude, and terribly funny and engaging. It works so well because while it doesn't have the budget of one of the Cirque shows, it embraces it's cheapness and makes it work for the show, much in the same way "Rocky Horror Show" or John Waters does, and it doesn't lose anything because of it. It gets a high recommendation from me, and if you're coming to Las Vegas and want to see a show, or if you live here and want a night out, it's well worth the time and money spent. The Sword Swallower alone is worth the price of admission.
