Le Reve

The reason we were at The Wynn was for our first Cirque du Soleil style show. We'd heard for years how these fabulous shows were a must see, but up until now the $130 ticket price effectively banished us from the proceedings.

We chose Le Reve for three reasons: it was new, a water based stage, and the stage is circular so that every seat is a good seat. The show was incredible. I enjoyed it immensely and now want to see all of the others.

Over stimulation is the only way to describe the experience. At any given point in the show there was the main acrobatic act with its supporting dancers, a side act that usually didn't fit with anything previously seen, and the over arcing story. Included in the acts were fountains of water and fire, elaborate props, and driving orchestral/dance music. It was difficult to absorb a quarter of the display.

Luckily brief intermissions reduced the shock to the senses. There were 4 guys in white suits carrying out their own continuing jokes during the break. They would walk out at odd intervals and do small wordless skits that would leave you breathless with laughter.

A truly awe inspiring show that I would recommend to anyone.
