My husband and I aren’t really circus goers - just not all that interested, and so we never really gave much thought to seeing a Cirque du Soleil show, but we’ve been coming to Vegas every year for a while now and kept seeing the good reviews. We decided to give it a shot.
AMAZING! The whole production is really well put together with tons of amazing acts.
One complaint: The first act has a ton going on, so you don’t know where to look because you don’t want to miss anything. It’s a little chaotic. Added to that are all the latecomers walking past, which is distracting (to me, at least...my husband said he didn’t even notice that when I was complaining about it later). But, after that initial bit, things calmed down and you were able to focus on each of the main acts as they came one at a time.
My favorite part was when one of the performers missed her landing and they had her try again, this time successfully. It reminds you that these are humans who work very hard to put on an amazing performance, but definitely are not perfect - just like the rest of us. And while they make some of the things they do look easy, it definitely is not.
I’d highly recommend seeing this show if you get a chance.
