Question on ';O'; at the Bellagio

Is this show worth the money to go see? It costs $165/ticket. I%26#39;ve heard good things about it but, that is very expensive for a show.



Question on ';O'; at the Bellagio


I will be going to it too on my next trip (in 42 days but sho%26#39;e counting). We saw Mystere six years ago and really loved it. We are really looking forward to ';O';. With Cirq shows you are either really going to love it, or you won%26#39;t. We will probably be shelling out the big bucks for real good seats too. I figure you are already investing a certain amount, may as well go whole hog. I know that it will be one of the highlights of our trip, so I know it%26#39;s a good investment. I%26#39;ve heard you don%26#39;t want to sit too close as there is alot to take in.



Question on ';O'; at the Bellagio


My husband and I both fell asleep about 20 minutes into the show... I cant really put my finger on why this show didnt keep our interest. Weve seen Mystere, Love and Ka and loved every minute. O was a disappointment for us both because it was so pricey.




I, of course meant ';who%26#39;s'; counting :)




I concur, you will either love Cirque du Soleil productions or not. If you want to ';get your feet wet';, go to Mystere because you can probably get discount tickets and, if not, the regular price is still cheaper than ';O'; which, IMHO is worth every pricey penny. I wanted to fall asleep in ';O'; not because it was boring, because it was 10:30 and that rum slushie I bought outside went down very smoothly.




For ';O';, we sat in section 101, row jj. Only two seats in that row and they were listed as obstructed view, but they were great. Seats a few feet over cost quite a bit more. You have to call the box office for these seats, though.




Personally I didn%26#39;t care for ';O'; as much as other shows like KA or the Cirque type show Le Reve. I am glad I saw it once though and I do appreciate what went into it. I wouldn%26#39;t say not to go as everyone has their own taste in shows.





You don%26#39;t need to pay $165. The Limited View seats have already been mentioned and that%26#39;s what I purchased. Mine was in section 203 and about three rows from first row of this section. I was surprised that these seats are called ';Limited View'; because my view not not obstucted. The very next seat beside me was full price! And the 203 section gives you a nice centre view to take in everything and not be too far or high up. The only row I%26#39;d avoid for the Limited view in that section is the first row as there is a railing that might block your view a bit. Other than that row, they%26#39;re awesome seats at an awesome price.





Take note that like KA, it%26#39;s not a typical Cirque type show. If you want then, then I%26#39;d suggest Mystere instead.




Thanks for the seating tips, I%26#39;m seriously considering it!
