The Cirque act that isn't really Cirque
While in Vegas over Labor Day Wknd, came to see Zumanity - high expectations of fantabulous Cirque shows of the past, mixed in w/ a bit of "Adult" themes & we're off to an extremely unique & breath-taking experience.....or so we thought
To sum it up - the acrobats at Cher the following night, were more amazing
Overall, too much boobie - not erotic & it quickly got to the point we were like oh look, another topless girl doing backbends
Most of the guys seemed to be of the stripper variety & not really Cirque performers....obviously there *were* guy acrobats but they seemed the minority rather than on equal footing w/ the girls
But - as far as sexual tastes & quote " taboos " go, there was a little something for everyone.....girl on girl, guy on guy, bondage, auto-asphyxiation, bathtubs, orgies....you get the picture. The "acrobatics" seemed to be of more the contortionists / drapey-ropes-in-the-air variety & no death-wheel, trampoline of fire, highwire options.....but then again, I guess those wouldn't really be considered erotic
There were funny bits that had me laughing out loud & it was an enjoyable evening but I was not bowled over w/ the oh-my-gawd-did-you-see-that kind of moments I expect from Cirque du Soleil.....I also did not come out of there all hot bothered but more like meh, so what's next?
So glad I saw it but wouldn't want to see it again
