Cirque du soleil anyone?

Is anyone going to see the cirque du soleil in London over the next 3 weeks?

If you havent seen it before i highly recommend it as it is one of the best shows i have ever seen in my life!

I love Cirque Du Soleil. Seriously the best circus I've ever been to (if you could call it that).

Highly recommend it.

Its going to cost me a fortune! The train to and from London, the hotel, the tickets, food and drink! Easy £150!

Not going to this one but have seen 3 live shows, Mystere,Ka and Love

all of them were absolutely superb

I've seen Dralion - fantastic.

Rotty · 23 Jan 2007 at 00:43

saw Dralion on video and thought it ok but weaker then the others, having said that it was probably just a case that a video/dvd could never match a live show

Take me to Vegas to see another one baby and I'll give you a full review :cool:

Didn't get enough time in Vegas to see the shows there

Saw it last year. Dissappointed when I saw the posters this year that they are doing the same show again.

I've seen Quidam and Saltimbanco - they were top class. The live spirit and atomphere can't really be recreated on DVD/CD though.

I've seen Dralion. Was quite impressive but the clowns were a bit weird.

The 8 hoops thing where they are all jumping through was mental.

Just watched the clips, and I genuinely can't see anything special about what they do. :confused:

Maybe I'm just hard to please.

You have to go and see it in real life to be honist, it is very very good.

I saw their show in birmigham 2 years ago, outside star city. I dont know which one it was though. How often do they tour?

Awesome display and great music too.

I thought there was only one show going on at any one time in the world, but there's loads aint there. Its the hotel and the travel and the food and drink in london thats going to cost me a fortune.

Went to it last night - Simply the best stage show that I have ever seen bar none.

They look really good, but a bit expensive for me.

They were on CSI last night. Someone got offed at one of their shows.
