A Must See show with room for improvement
by emmett dee on 9/12/25Awakening Theater at Wynn Las Vegas - Las VegasRating: 4 out of 5For an old boomer raised on classic rock, the (recorded not live?) music is too bass intense and beat driven. The "story line"is weak, contrived and forced. Sometimes bright lights are directed at the audience, which is annoying at best, occasionally blinding.
That being said, I highly recommend this show for everyone! "Awakenings"takes costumes to another level, the dancing is absolutely beautiful, and the acrobatic acts are mesmerizing.
The creative use of relatively simple props creates convincing atmospheric sets and environments. In a town with many impressive shows, I would rate "Awakenings"as being as good as it gets, especially considering that relatively low ticket prices make it a good value.
Like I said, you have to see this show.
