Absinthe was a great, fun, quirky little show.
The show is in a tent located outside of Caesars Palace. That being said, the seating is a lot more 'intimate' than most other shows you'll watch in Vegas. I didn't mind it so much, but a lot of other patrons seemed uncomfortable with it. The one thing that I hated were the seats. They are wooden chairs and are not comfortable whatsoever. So be prepared to spend 90 minutes being uncomfortable.
As for the performances of the show, they were amazing. Similar to the Cirque shows available, but with their own little twists. I won't go into specific detail as to not spoil the surprise. But I will say the host of the show, ' The Gazillionaire' and his assistant Penny are hilarious, and a great addition to the show. Their jokes definitely do not stay on the politically correct side of things, so if you get offended easily, it's not a show for you.
Also, since the tent is so small, every seat available is a good seat. And on the same note, seating is first come first serve, so if you would like a seat in the first row or a seat in the aisle, go early.
