I went to see “O” by Cirque de Soleil last night. I’ve seen Cirque performers live before, but the difference is the technical aspect that comes with a custom built theatre with a ever-changing dive tank:
All photos courtesy of Cirque…
The floor constantly changes throughout the hour-and-forty-five minute show, from being completely flat and dry to every configuration of depth and shape:
I can’t even explain what happened. I gasped, I cried, I sat on the edge of my seat. I have seen beautiful acrobatics in my life, but this was incredible. It was worth every penny of the ticket price (which I didn’t pay for, but would do in a heartbeat!!). I can’t say anymore; the photos don’t begin to do it justice.
If you think that Cirque is over-hyped, you haven’t seen “O” – it is worth the fuss and awe.
It even put the buffet at the Bellagio to shame 
I had the exact same experience when I saw “O”. My friend Anna was very tight on cash, so I bought her a ticket so that she would be able to come too – and afterward, she hugged me and started crying because she never would have been able to see it without me, and she was so touched by the show.
It really is amazing.
