I read the seats are uncomfortable.


Everyone is sitting pretty close, but it's not bad.

Also, not sure if my wife would like it. She likes burlesque though, if it's classy.


It has a plethora of different entertainment genres.

The Comedy is absolutely hysterical. The show is put together and produced extremely well.

The performers are amazing at their individual crafts.

It was the best piece of live entertainment I've been a part of.

I've seen O, Le reve and love.

Love was awful
O was decent but highly overrated
Le reve was way better than O

I've heard the michael Jackson show is good

Not sure how anybody can say this and you're the first person I've ever heard say this.

As everybody's said, Absinthe is great and I especially liked how close everyone is to everything and it's just a really fun show. O is my and most other people's favorite Cirque show. The Beatles Love and the Michael Jackson one are good as far as music but the acrobatics seemed lacking. I liked Penn and Teller more than the other Magic Shows I've seen but a lot of people like this new guy Mat Franco at the Linq.

Also, check to see if there's anything going on at the new T-Mobile center while you're here.

Agreed.

Absinthe by far. La Reve is definitely not.

Another vote for Absinthe. Been to Vegas 20+ times over the last decade. It's the only one I've cared to see again.

"O" at the Bellagio is unreal There is a pool built into the stage, and it is a water-based Cirque show. Different than anything else you'l see.
If you time it right, Elton John has to be a must-see.
Penn and Teller are great too.
Criss Angel is disappointing.
Buy your tickets early and do it through ticketmaster and you can choose your own seats up front for most shows.

I saw Don Rickles like 20 years ago. He was badass. Not a big fan of Vegas though, so I guess I can't be of much help for anything current. P

Who goes to these shows? I've been to Vegas many times and that absolutely never seemed like something worth doing. I don't need to be 'entertained' like that. I assume this is the Disney slash cruise ship slash all-inclusive crowd...you know...I won't say it.

As you well know, most of these shows in Vegas aren't cheap. But by all means, keep implying that the people who see them are trash while you load up on the free miller lites over at the penny slots.


Blue man group is a great show. If you've never seen Cirque, go see O. I kind of hold the opinion that if you've seen one, you've seen them all though (I've seen four). I'm gping in July and might have to add Absinthe to my list

We aren't talking about theatre plays, or orchestras, or operas, or musicals, or even real concerts...these are lowest-common-denominator...Vegas, want to be entertainment to morons shows. Knight for whoever you want, but I'm right again.

Clearly, with all of those concrete facts and tidbits you just listed... How could you not be right?
