Las Vegas - Cirque du soleil shows
Posted on 7/24/18 at 8:02 am
Posted on 7/24/18 at 8:02 am
Need a little help with an upcoming trip to Vegas. My wife is insisting on going to a Cirque show while we are there, we have time to go to one. I’ve looked at the descriptions of the different shows and can’t really decide which would be better. I think I’m leaning towards the Beatles or Michael Jackson Cirque shows, but not sure if I’d be missing out on something really good simply because I like the comfort of music that I know. I’ve never been to one before and really my only knowledge of the shows is what I saw on the movie Knocked Up when they ate shrooms. That being said, I would really appreciate a push in the right direction.
ETA: Thanks for all of the responses, after talking with the wife and seeing what everyone had to say, it really seems like there isn't a bad choice. that being said, we are probably going to do the Michael Jackson one. She didn't have a preference, and I really think I'd enjoy the show more with music I'm familiar with.

I saw the Beatles Love and it was fantastic. However, Michael Jackson One wasn't performing at the time and I really wanted to see that too.
I doubt there's a wrong answer here.

KA is hands down the best. I’ve seen them all.

Both of those are very good and you are right as far as being comfortable about the music.
I've been to Beatles twice and it's been running so long that tickets were pretty easy to get the second time we went.
My wife saw Michael Jackson and she would go again to that one.
Everyone raves about the other ones as well and will probably try some of the other ones next time we go to Vegas. Mystere and O will be next on our list.

I've seen Beatles Love and it was amazing. I would love to see that one again because there is so much going on at one time I feel like you could have a new experience each time you see it.
However, I've heard the Michael Jackson one was also really good.
Price wise...you might be able to get a better deal on Love since it is an older show(although in 2017 they revamped the entire show).

I did not like "O" at all. It was boring. The little side story thing was bad. Plus it was expensive AF

The Beatles show was great. My wife wanted to see it and I thought it may be a let down, but it most definitely was not. I'd go see it again.

I know for Beatles it's a different experience as well depending on where you sit.
It's a lot different if you sit down low and experience it that way although a little more pricey.
We sat lower the second time we went because it was not crowded even though we paid the lower price for tickets. If it's not crowded at show time they will allow you to move down.

If you dont like the Beatles or MJ, dont go to those shows. KA is pretty damned awesome.
Also check out Absinthe at Caesars.

I've always heard that Ka and O were the best. I've seen O and Mystere. I preferred Mystere.

Saw both Beatles and Mystere, both were awesome. If I had to choose, I would pick Beatles just because the venue at the Mirage is better then the venue at Treasure Island for Mystere.

My 2 favorite shows in Vegas are Le Reve (at the wynn, not cirque de soleil) and Zumanity.
I didn't love O, and found Le Reve to be much more enjoyable and easier to follow.
Also, I wasn't a huge fan of Love.

I saw Mystere about 18 months ago. I wasn't up to speed on what exactly Cirque shows entailed, so I basically went in blind. The athleticism is unbelievable, especially the 2 brothers who perform on the round surface. But as far as the story and the fricked up overgrown fat baby thing...that shite was out there...

Beatle Love was awesome. My favorite show in Vegas. I didnt like KA

Ka was my favorite.
I heard they changed some things after that girl died, so I don't know.

We’ve seen Mystere, O, and Love in Vegas, and several traveling Cirque Du Soliel shows (including the Michael Jackson one), we enjoyed everyone one of them. Mystere is probably my favorite because it was the first one I’d ever seen. The music is pretty awesome at all of them, it’s played live. Even Love & Michael Jackson has a live band backing the recorded tracks.

Conversely to some people in this thread, I thought the Beetles show was awful and I liked "O".
