Has Any One Seen La Nouba?

[DisneyHoneymooner84]

We need to book our seating now if we want to go but only being in Disney 5 days we are running short on time with everything anyway. I am wondering if it is worth going to? Tell me what you think.

 

[Shannon G]

Yes, definitely worth seeing!!!

On previous trips, DH and I had talked about goingt o La Nouba - he wasn't necessarily all that interested. Finally, on our last trip, we decided to just book it - we both loved it! Dh even tells people that he didn't really care if he saw it, but he ended up really enjoying it, and also recommends it highly.

In fact, we enjoyed La Nouba so much, we are headed down to New York for the weekend, and we have tickets to see Cirque du Soleil Alegria tomorrow!

I loved it and would love to see it again. But, honestly, I would only do it after I had seen the evening spectaculars in the parks or at a matinee performance.

But that's just my choice.

We saw it and the show was very good. However, for the cost involved and the other options at WDW I wouldn't do it again. It's kind of an odd show...I would reccomend trying to find one of the Cirque shows on tv to see if it is something you would like to see in person. Also, it is only about an hour and a half long. We enjoyed the nighttime entertainment at the parks just as much.

I have seen La Nouba three times and am sure to see it again one of these days, but probably not on our upcoming trip.

I have also seen Drallion, O, Varekai, Zumanity, Quidam(2) and Mystere(3) and enjoyed them all but probably would not go see Zumanity again unless the person I was with really wanted to see it.

They are all great shows but not for everyone. Most people tend to like them but there are some people who just don't enjoy that kind of thing.

If you do decide to go try and get tickets at center stage, second level in the first couple of rows, near the sound engineer, as it will give you the best view of both the stage and everything else that happens. Also, make sure to get there at least 15 minutes early and if you don't, don't say you hadn't been forwarned.

We just saw it on Friday when on our honeymoon. two words:

S E E I T.

It was spectacular. Very different and highly entertaining. This was my first Cirque du Soleil though, so I don't know how it rates if you have seen others. I know all the shows are different though and the one at Disney is exclusive to there.

 

[marciaje]

Thought it was amazing, absolutely the best thing we did during our last trip.

I had stayed away from it because of the price, but finally went to see it and have been back 3 times since! I took my father once and he liked it so much that we went back the next night to see it again!

 

[PatriciaH]

We have seen La Nouba twice as well as Quidam, O, and Mystere. We are going to NY Memorial day weekend to see Alegria and we have tickets for Varekai this August in Boston. We LOVE Cirque! I would gladly see any of the shows again.

 

[travelgoddess]

I've seen it twice.....I just love the strong man....

 

[GEM]

You didn't have the option I wanted -

"Yes. Saw it and it was absolutely breathtaking!"

 

[KerriL]

Awesome show!!! Saw it 3 times. One of the best Cirque du Soleil shows out there.

It was a highlight of our trip. Went on my B-day!! My DH was pulled up on stage for the "stunt bike" act.
My 3 kids 6,9,12 loved it as well!!!
A must do!

DD's first year of college she saw it on Bravo. Begged to go. Wanted it as part of her Christmas present. We watched Bravo. Ok take a deep breath and go.

I will never forget the first couple of minutes after the show ended. It was like we were all waking up after a fantastic dream. DH, DD 19, DD 16 and I just looked at each other and started laughing.. Then the comments..could you believe? Oh wow! the music? Did you see? No way, fantastic, incredible, when they....I loved...... the part with the trampoline....those little girls.....those big hoops.....so fast, can't believe its over, so worth it, can't believe we almost didn't come......we were all talking at once in a kind of shorthand, but mostly we just celebrated pure joy and perfection.

Oh, and by all means watch it on Bravo and then multiply the experience by at least a hundred.

 

[Banzai]

I've not seen it yet. However, I have seen Quidam and it was wonderful, and I was told that La Nouba is even better.

We saw it last March and enjoyed it but would wait a while before going again. We would go to another version. My sister was part of the show much to her chargrin. It was such a surprise that we didn't think to take pictures! It is a total experience. I don't think there is a bad seat in the show but the closer you sit to the center walkway the more apt you are to be part of the show

What day would you recommend going and seeing it? We are going to arrive on a Monday and leave on Saturday.

I don't think it makes any difference which nite you see it; just pick a nite that works into your itinerary the best! I wouldn't schedule it for your 1st nite in case you're late getting to WDW for whatever reason. Just know that it will likely be one of, if not THE highlight of your trip!

We've seen La Nouba twice, and have tix to see it again this July and I cannot wait! Our kids loved it too, even the toddlers!

I'd love to see the travelling shows too (the advertisements for Allegria look fantastic!) but I live in a little rural town and nothing much comes our way.
