Cirque du Soleil: Corteo by ipab on 06-19-2008 at 07:56 AM

I'm wondering whether anyone has ever seen this performance before. They are in town and I'm looking into it for someone special.

The tickets are well, a tad pricy, and that is why I want to figure out what people's opinions are on their performance.

Perhaps if you guys have any alternate suggestions too, if you think that this is not worth it either would be greatly appreciated.

The other thing is that, even if you haven't seen this specific show, perhaps you guys can help me find trusted reviews and or perhaps one of you have seen one of their other shows and can comment on it too.

All comments are welcome :).

P.S. Adding a poll on the matter.

I personally havent seen a performance by Cirque du Soleil live, but i have seen parts of it on TV and i must say, it is pretty spectacular. One of our friends has gone to see them live and they say that it was something special as well. Therefore i think that it will definitely be worth it :)

Part of me thought you were going to say special again in that sentence :P

My parents enjoyed another one of their performances so yeah go get some culture!

I saw their DELIRIUM show when it came to Glasgow in April this year (the first time it's been in Glasgow......EVER) and yes the tickets were a bit pricey (185 GBP for 3) but it was something that I always wanted to see and I have to say that it was worth it. Words can't describe how it was to see live...I mean on TV is spectacular but until you see it live...it's breathtaking.

Crossing my fingers for further ones to come to Glasgow (cause london's just a tad too far and a tad too expensive :D

If you want to see a clip of it to see if it's your cup of tea, you can see a clip on the official site

If you like spectacle, circus, acrobacy, extremely beautiful music, theater, fantasy, best-of-the-best acts, etc... go to Cirque Du Soleil. The tickets are worth it, every cent...

I'm pretty sure any girl would like that kind of shows.

The fact that you said ''someone special'' and that as far as I know you're a dude.. or at least I think you're a dude.

On a different note..

I went to the Circus here in Rockingham last Friday. The trees have it out for me. It was great fun but kind of scary at times. I guess the whole point of this post is go or I chop you up. Its fun ;)

You should definately go see Cirque du Soleil.  I've seen Holiday On Ice, which was awesome and I believe Cirque du Soleil definately stands up to those standards. I'd love to see them myself too.
