The Cirque de Soleil Show
The Cirque de Soleil Show
This is like the circus meets the theatre. In these performances, acrobats and gymnast perform their routines at a high level. Las Vegas has a bunch of shows featuring Cirque de Soleil, so there were many options to choose from. Mom chose the show (Mystere) and bought the tickets for us. Mom makes the right choice because this show was great. It was an over the top performance featuring great skills and humor. The thing that impresses me about Cirque de Soleil is the degree of difficulty that these performers need to put on a consistent basis. One example from the performance were these two brothers balancing themselves on each other. It looked a little gay, but featured some amazing strength. One of the brothers was lying on the ground, while the other brother did a handstand on the ankles of the other brother. The brother lying on the group lifted his brother up with his hamstrings. The show plays twice a night.
