There aren't many "must see" shows in any year - but this is one of them. Varekai relies more on set piece performances than other Cirque du Soleil shows - but they are brilliantly timed, with spectacular costumes and feats of strength and timing that simply take your breath away.
The tickets may be pricey, but the Cirque du Soleil experience is worth every cent. There isn't a bad seat in the house (the big top holds 2,600), and the season has been extended until February 18th.
