Cirque ???'S

[jacksmom]

I would love to do Cirque on our up-coming trip in March! But, I already have planned a park tour, a dinner show, and a fancy dinner at Jiko! Has anyone tried the Cat. 3 seats? Are they really bad??? Or, are cat. 3 seats better than nothing?? I have a ds(8), will he love this? Or, should I wait till next trip and get better seats?? Also, are there ever any discounts (AP, Disney Visa or DVC)? Lastly, which nights do the show run? THANKS!

I would not worry about the category 3 seats. The theater was built for La Nouba, and every seat is good. I have gone three times and sat everywhere. I would love to go again! Have fun if you decide to do it!

Yeah, dont worry about which cat too much. Ive sat in cat3 before and I had a great view. The sweetpea was 8yo at the time and said that we had the best seats. You probably couldn't go wrong with any seat in that theater. Can't wait till we see it again.

I agree.
I saw this on one of my solo trips and went with the cheapest seat. I was worried at first (when we see Cirque DuSoleil in Dallas we always go VIP) but once I was seated- no worries... I had the best seat in the house! I would have HATED being right up front craning my neck up to see everything.

I agree with the above posters. We (myself, 27 y/o son, and 8 y/o GD) just got back Jan 15th. We saw Cirque on our last full night (01/14/05) and it was wonderful. When I booked it, I had my doubts that it would be my son's or GD's cup of tea. I had also booked the 9:00pm show and was concerned if my GD could stay awake. I shouldn't have been concerned. Both of them have a hard time staying still, but did not move during the entire 90 minute performance. I had bought the Cat 1 seats and prior to the show my son said I was out of my mind for spending that much money on one show, but afterwards he said it was easily worth twice what I paid. I really wish I had bought the cheaper seats though, not because of the money, but because of the view. We were in Sec 103, Row F, Seats 1,2,&3. Some of the preshow stuff occurs between Sec 103 and Sec 204 so we had to look behind us to see it. Also alot of the stuff happens in the air and so we were looking up much of the time. The theater is very small, so I don't think there is a bad seat in the house unless maybe you're right on one of the very end sections. When her GF picked us up at the airport, he asked my GD if she enjoyed her first trip to WDW and she immediately started talking about the La Nouba show (not the parks, rides, or shows). I think your son would love it and probably be as fascinated by it as my GD was.

Thanks for all your responses! I think we will give it a try! One last question? Which night to go is best? We are thinking about the 6:00 show! Also, where/ what time to eat?? THANKS!!
