The previous posts on here regarding delirium seem to be mostly negative. I've never seen any CDS shows so I don't really have any expectations. I don't have a problem shelling out $texas for the lady and I, I just want to make sure it's worth it. The best show I've ever seen live was Riverdance, and if this is even remotely as stimulating an event, I'll probably be there. Looks like good seats are still available, for $110 each.

I actually saw this when it was through about a year ago and I enjoyed it. It is more music driven than other Cirque shows. Still a lot of acrobatics and weirdness, but not too much. The music is very new age/sting/trance-y type stuff. I enjoyed the show a lot.

trance-y, eh? Hmm. I might have to look into this further. I heard some of the sample stuff from their site and wasn't too blown away. But once they come anywhere near here with Allegria I am all over it.

^yeah, my husband got me tickets to this because he knows I'm dying to see Cirque live, but I thought this was so-so. The good thing is that there were so many empty seats on the level below us (our "cheap seats" were still expensive) that our whole section was moved closer by the venue staff.

just depends on what type of Cirque show you are wanting to see. If you are expecting one of the shows that has insane amounts of acrobatics, you will be disappointed. This one is far more music driven.

I will say that if you don't like Delirium then you wouldn't like Love (in Vegas) They are very similar shows as far as staging. (Obviously you will like Love if you are a Beatles fan though.)

I forgot which show I went to when it was in a HUGE tent in the middle of a mall's parking lot, but that show was freaking awesome!

got front row balcony (300-level) seats this past Thursday for the 4/2 show

$70 a piece, and from everyone I've talked to I'm pretty confident that it will be well worth it

obviously very good seats are still available

saw Cirque's "Varekai" show in seattle last year, and it was totally awesome. $60 tix got us in the front center section.

absolutely worth it. i havent looked into reviews on Delerium but it's coming to Seattle this year, and we'll go to it regardless.

sorry, guys, I'm a huge Cirque fan... but Delirium just plain sucks. Huge ripoff.

I won't be in town when it hits Atlanta. I saw Zumanity last month in Vegas - it was great!

the staging for KA is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Story was pretty good too.

One piece of advice, though. If you are going to see one of the late shows, do NOT spend the entire day drinking and gambling like it was going out of style. Becomes really easy to nod off some during the performance.

i just went there and saw O. it was a great show but the previews for KA looked really good. if i had a choice, i would go see KA.

zumanity looks pretty cool. plus there are naked chicks in that one, so it's a tough decision.
