This was our first time seeing a Cirque
du Soleil performance, and we loved every minute of it! The aesthetic of the show blew us away—it was so unique and visually stunning. The way the stage moved seemed to defy the laws of physics at times. Then of course the talent, strength, and energy of the performers was outstanding. I really enjoyed how there was some humor throughout the show to alleviate tension and allow for buildup of the intense action sequences. I can see how some of the storyline can be hard to follow as some reviews have referenced. Maybe a few more explanations throughout as there is in the beginning to setup the performance would be helpful. However, even without this I was able to catchup and figure out the story line after a few minutes, so I don’t feel this takes away from the rating at all. There was a little boy behind us who shouted out “Agua!” during once scene (so cute), so I think most people can catch onto it as he clearly did!
