I saw "La Reve" and "The Beatles: Love"--2 new Cirque shows in Vegas
"La Reve" was quite good, though it felt a bit like a more adult, abstract version of "O." (Lots of water, erotic imagery, etc.)

"Love," however, despite a couple drawbacks (almost no Beatles music pre-1966, some lengthy filler between set changes), was: stunning, moving, funny, inspired, brilliant, magnificent, rhapsodic, and heavenly.

If anyone else has seen them, feel free to comment.

1. So You Recommend "Love" ?
How does it compare to "O"? That was the best Cirque show I've seen in Vegas.

2. Right behind it, no question
Light years beyond "Dralion" and "Varekai" as well.

3. Good To Know

After Mystere and O, Cirque seemed to take a few steps backwards with "Ka" and the adult themed show "Zumanity." I never saw either of those, but heard they were not nearly as good as Mystere or O.
