Disappointing Show!!!

by lovetotravelwoman

I've travelled all of the world and have seen all of the Cirque du Soleil shows

If you want to see some good Cirque du Soleil shows, then don't go and see "O". There are plenty of other options!!

I felt like I was watching an "Ethel Merman" movie from the 60's!!!

Just say "NO" to "O"!!

Magickal theatre

by cariad

Cirque du Soleil has created something here that has never been seen or experienced anywhere - a water show where you can see Olympians hone their crafts to become Circus artists - in the water! This is not a show for kids. This is not a show for those easily impressed with typical Vegas strip acts such as those found in nearly every lounge in town. "O" is a spectacle of elemental and mythological dreamwork - it is darker than "Mystere" and not as forcused on the music as "Love" - it is it's own marvelous magickal creation. The musicians and artists in the show manage to do their acts every day twice a day every day five days a week and rehearsals - imagine what stamina that takes! I have seen this show several times over the years and can say without a doubt this is THE best show on the Strip. There are acts in this show that will not be seen anywhere and that will steal your breath and leave you longing for more. I did read another review that said that it is too long - all shows on the Strip are 90 minutes long, "O" is no exception. The costumes, the makeup, the sheer theatrical scope of this show are mind-blowing. The service of the staff from the ushers to the office staff is constantly top notch.

The prices are up there, however that is dictated by the Bellagio and not by Cirque du Soleil - they went way up after Celine Dion brought her show to town with $200 + tickets. If you want the ordinary, by all means, go see another show on the Strip or off - but if you want to see something that you will never see anywhere else ever - if you want to see magnificent acrobatic work and synchronized swimming as well as brilliant music, "O" is your show. It is a show about dreams coming true.....dreams that may start off a bit dark and odd but in the end are everything you would have them be and so much more. Friendship and pure love. How the creators of this show managed to capture this, I will never know, but they did. Well done to them!

• Pros: Brilliant staff, magnificent artistry, misic is the best of any Show I have seen
• Cons: no bathroom breaks - it is a water show after all

Wow!!

by chrissynicegirl

I saw 'O' for the first time last week. It was my first time seeing a Cirque du Solei show. It was fabulous! We were sitting on the edge of our seats the whole entire time. The stage was amazing the way it turned into deep diving pool, a shallow pool etc. The diving and acrobatics were phenominal. It is so hard to translate this performance into words! It was AMAZING and worth every penny! We sat in the cheap seats...the farthest seat from the stage in the upper balcony. It was hard to see at times, especially when the performers move off the stage and into the audience. I think it would be worth spending the extra money to get seats closer to the stage. Overall, this performance was breathtaking. I hightly recommend it to anyone visiting Las Vegas!

10:30 pm Show

by cjbmom1995

11 of us went to the "O" show 8 Adults and 3 Children ages 10 & 11. The show was too long and the kids had a hard time staying awake. Out of 11 of us only 3 people thought is was worth the $165.00 per ticket. That means 8 thumbs down for this show. If you feel the need to see it, I recommend the cheapest seats because it really doesn't matter where you sit and save yourself some money.

I liked clowns!!!

by svetlanap5

To tell you the truth, Cirque is not my favorite thing. But, I heard so much about the ?O? show, that I had to see it. And I don?t regret that I did. Most of all my friends and I liked the clowns and we laughed a lot.

Brilliant acrobats.

Amazing feats

by pokerplayer1234

I saw this show during my March visit and it's worth the money. However, I have to say that the only other Cirque show I've ever seen was Love, and that was the night before. Compared to the Love show, the O show seemed a little slow and boring. Don't get me wrong, the theatrics and stunts were still breathtaking, but it was just on the slow side relatively speaking. If you're trying to decide between the two, I'd definitely recommend Love over O.

• Pros: Amazing theatrics and stunts
• Cons: a little on the slow side, especially compared to Cirque's Love.

Surprisingly Excellent...

by mildlyamusing

To be fair, the last time I saw a Cirque show it was in NYC and I was 10...i didn't appreciate it. Things have certainly changed. To call the show visually impressive is a massive understatement. It was easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The stage/pool moved seamlessly throughout each act. The performers were terrific, especially the divers and trapeeze girl...and I still can't figure out how they did the fire thing. The only real downside were the clowns...i didn't find them particularly funny or necessary. I would definitely recommend putting it on the "to do" list for your Vegas vacation.

• Pros: visually stunning acrobatics
• Cons: kind of expensive

Expensive but worth it

by rmh66

I brought two friends to O, and after the show they couldn't stop talking about it. Some of the effects are extremely cool (I'm still not entirely sure how they did some of them). Great acrobatics. The theatre itself is really amazing (as far as the stage/pool goes), though I would say that Le Reve's venue is better.

There seems to be a lot of comparison between O and Le Reve as the some of the show elements are similar. I would say see both. They are both worth the money.

• Pros: Great show, music, stage
