Ever seen Cirque du Soliel?

Archive: 14 posts


I wanted to ask because i'm going on a French field trip across the border, to Montreal to see the new act Totem (The story of man's evolution) tomorrow. I believe it should be a very riveting experience, and i have heard the acts are amazing, so if you have seen one of their shows, please do tell.2010-05-13 02:24:00

Cirque du Soliel?
Isn't that the one they've shown on TV before?
If it is what I think it is then it should be a truly awesome experience, as in, it will truly inspire awe. I've always wanted to see it live.

35 bucks a pop, there you go. The Cirque came to Vancouver but at 200 bucks a pop I steered clear like it was diseased. I would have loved to have gone, but seriously, 200 bucks? Two HUNDRED? More like Cirque du ********!2010-05-13 09:50:00

I've only seen it on TV. There used to be a show on Bravo showing the auditions and practices and following their lives. It was pretty interesting. Hope you have a great time. Let us know how it went. 2010-05-13 11:30:00

I have seen three shows. Love-an amazing Beatles tribute, Ka- An asian themed show with breathtaking special effects, and Mystere- A Cirque Du Soiel classic. Trust me, it is well worth the money, It is a once in a lifetime experience.2010-05-13 21:48:00

I saw Quidam and Ovo, both were really good, yet inspiring!
It's a wonderful french Canadian project that everybody should at least experience one time in their life, on TV, online, in person, it doesn't matter, as long as you live the experience.

Seen three shows, 2 here in Philly a long time ago, don't remember what they were specifically. One of them was based on a surrealist painting, that's all I recall.

This spring break I saw Mystere. It was so awesome.

I love the humor bits that they interrupt the incredible gymnastics with.

Cirque du Soleil is god-tier platforming.

It was amazing!, yes, Totem: the story of man's evolution. the time where they put in comical relief was hilarious. There was a man on a boat, fishing, he caught a shopping bag & took out a carton of eggs. he tried to crack it but would brake, it bounced (ping pong ball) he continued to bounce it on pans on his head, shoulders feet, etc..very funny. a nice mix between comedy and performance. They also had men in monkey suits that at times, made you forget they were human. Their mannerisms were spot on, they also had a few Very talented singers and musicians. The music ways played live, backstage. The last bit of cool information is, on the right of the stage (where i was sitting) There was about 50 LCD sceens that curved and displayed different assortments of water and liquid was displayed on them for each act. Yes a truely amazing experience. <3<3<32010-05-14 19:52:00
