A long time ago. As in 10+ years when I was still a student. Had fun cause it's Vegas and was my first time. I wouldn't stay there again but I think they've made big efforts to improve the past couple of years.

I read the seats are uncomfortable. Also, not sure if my wife would like it. She likes burlesque though, if it's classy.

I will say the Cirque shows that are themed like this one and Love are cool if you are into the theme. O might have been cool, but I was hammered and we sat in the front so we saw all the back and side stage work. Something about seeing "how the sausage was made" so to speak kind of ruined it.

"O" was my favorite when I went, but that was about 10 years ago. Blue Man was entertaining as well. I only saw those two so.....

Michael Jackson "One". Its a Cirque Du Soleil show. "O" is as well, which is really good as well. Britney Spears is worth checking out.. I haven't seen it yet but I heard "Rock of Ages" is pretty good. David Copperfield, Criss Angel.. thats just a few.

I am a Michal Jackson fan so I loved it, but I went with a few people who were not that big of a MJ fan and thought it was awesome.

This is the only correct answer. I live here in Vegas and have seen a lot of shows here. Absinthe was the most entertaining

I saw Absinthe this weekend. It was hilarious and very entertaining. The seats are just fold out seats, nothing fancy, but that's sort of the whole idea.

Meh, I mean they are just normal metal folding chairs in a tent. That's part of what makes it so awesome, it's small so everyone is part of the action.

It's just a variety show...comedy, burlesque, singing, stunts, tricks, acrobatics, dancing, tight rope walkers, audience participation, the works.

We got the VIP champagne package when we did it too.

We went earlier this year and enjoyed the Michael Jackson One show. I'd recommend it.

Correct. There was only 3 or 4 women in the whole thing. The MC was fricking hilarious for my show. Ripped apart the entire front row. Asians, blacks, whites, gays, lesbians. Very funny stuff.

yeah, it was just the best price for that location on the strip. I dont think we'll be spending too much time there but would be nice to make sure the place isnt a dump

Zumanity from Cirque du soleil

Super sexualized version of the kind of stuff you'd expect from them. High flying stunts, amazing gymnastics stuff, acrobats, etc. All done with very little clothing.

I can only speak for what it was like several years ago and ehhhhh. Not so great. To me the difference isn't just the room. The different casino/hotels extend perks to their guests such as reduced shows and entrance to nightclubs. Plus I think they only allow their guests at the pool, etc. this is where ti really falls short. I don't know what the pool is like (I stayed there in January) but the nightclub sucked.

again I think they've been making a huge effort to up their game but I'm not sure how much they've improved.

They used to have killer rates. By far best on the strip

go see "2 hookers & blow" starring Sprinkles & Tiffani at the spearmint rhino. Its one of my favorite shows not just in vegas but on the planet.
