I was thinking about purchasing some tickets for the soon to be wife for her birthday. Has anyone been to one of these shows? I've heard they are pretty entertaining.

If so, is it worth it to shell out ~175 for primo tickets to get the best view of the action?

Took the folks to see it about 6 years ago (La Nuba), they still talk about it. Awesome show!

I have been to two of the shows (Varekai and Allegria) and really enjoyed them. I really want to get to vegas to see the "O" and the "Ka"

seating is a little questionable because it is a little uncomfortable in those tents for the traveling shows, but other than that, the cirque is well worth the time and very entertaining

Spend the money.....enjoy the show (whichever one you view).

I was in Vegas last week and got hung up on playing poker otherwise I would go again. I want to see the water version (can't remember the name).

saint...

your future wife will love the show....that in itself is worth the price, imo....

i have seen quite a few & liked most of them...

however, saw le reve (water show) at the wynn during bowl season & found the theater to be very humid & quite suffocating that i had to walk out during the show. but my wife & her friend found it to be comfortable....

when i go back on 6/30 i have tickets to see yet another show that is performed to beatles music. did anybody hear anything about that show ?

enjoy the show if you go...

Saw "O" a few years ago, outright incredible. Also saw "Le Reve" this year it was also great but not as good as "O". O's theatre is a lot larger so seating does matter. Le Reve's theatre is circular and doesn' have a bad seat in there in my opinion. I also didn't think it was too humid in the theatre, but it did smell a little bit like a swimming pool, but no complaints.

Thanks for the replies fellas. The show that is going to be in Cincinnati is called "Quidam". I don't know much about it but will purchase the tix now. With my amex I get pre-sale purchase so I should get some good seats.

Thanks again.

fyi

had tix to O last weekend at will call.....was too hung over to attend and girlfriend was worse than me.....picked up tix at will call 15 mins before 10:30 show on sunday night and sold them....50+ people waiting in stand-by line desperate for tix.....probably could have made a mint as people were desperate to see the show but girlfriend just sold them for face and processing fee.

bellagio would probably frown on scalping but if you go during a busy weekend, buy 4 tix, use 2 and sell the other 2 and you could make some money to pay for your show.

heard show was awesome......maybe next time
