Has anyone done Cirque du Soleil?

[browneyes]

I don't think I've seen a review of their Downtown Disney show on the boards. Is it worth seeing?

 

[2bemarried]

YES!!! We saw it in early June. The show is amazing to say the least. Very well worth the money spent.

 

[WDWHound]

YES! It is very much worth seeing.

Don't know, but I'm hoping to see it in September. There are great AP rates. I'll let you know what I think!

Where do I find the great AP rates? We are hoping to see it as well and need something "new" to do on our September trip.

I have never ever heard anything but excellent reviews about it.

I've seen it on tv (Bravo) and it looks AMAZING!!

DH and I went about a year ago and LOVED it! It's so different. Worth ever penny we spent! I'd defnitely see it again.

We absolutely loved it! We sent DS (by himself, last minute decision) as part of his graduation gift in '99. He wanted us to go so badly, he volunteered to take his sister (then 8) to do something special so DH & I could go. We just couldn't imagine spending that much $$ on something when we were happy enough to be at WDW!

After watching some of the other shows on Bravo, DD begged to be taken on our next trip. All I can say is that DS was right. It's a "must see!" And yes, even I (cheapskate that I am) think it was worth every penny!

It's a great show

Another vote for YES. It is a great show, and we had lots of fun.

According to Deb's site:

I haven't seen the DTD show (I'm going to in December though), but I have seen 3 touring shows when they have come to Atlanta. They were all terrific! I don't plan to ever miss an Atlanta show, and I event want to go to Vegas and see the 2 shows they have there. Two thumbs way up!

Well, I'll be in the minority on this one. I thought it was alright, but not as fantastic as everyone (including my inlaws) raved about. I felt that the entertainment value compared to the price of the tickets wasn't all that good. OTH, my kids and DH LOVED it, as did my mil/fil and bil/sil.

LOVED IT!! Well worth the money and a lot cheaper to see at WDW than in Vegas. Different show of course, but still well worth it!

Definitely LOVED it and thought it was well worth the money spent. Would see it again in a heartbeat. Since you asked for a review, the only possible complaint I could voice if forced to make one was how close together the seats were in the theater. I am not a large person, but felt a little too close to the seats next to me and in front of me.

We loved it so much we are driving 4 hours to see Drailon in Sept.

Another vote for 'loved it'! I took my DD last year and it was amazing! We also try to catch the various shows on Bravo whenever they're on.

 

[candykisses]

I want to see this so much, but now I have more fire power with the discount tickets. I loved Quidam, so this would be my second.

That was me posting under mom's name

Saw it about 2 years ago, got 20% off with AP discount. It was very nice, and very expensive. I don't think I would pay the regular price for it, but if I got some sort of discount I would see it again sometime.
