Good but not the best

Hard to put in words, music, dance, storyline, special effects, singing, magic, and muc more.
Very entertaining show! Choreo was exceptional. Theatrics were amazing. I highly recommend
Visually stunning but story line was a mess and disjointed
Was a visual enjoyment but very slow and story line was predictable.
Definitely not a cirque show but a great show nonetheless a show full of technology dancing singing with a great storyline.
A stunning and intimate stage with performances that made us want more. Just wished for more acrobatic performances. Every single scene was amazing!
If you are visiting Vegas, make it a point to see Awakening. It is an over the top experience. I will definitely see it again!
Was a wonderful show. Beautiful costumes and stage design. Changing stage made for an interesting production. It had a little too much dancing for me. A few acrobatic tricks and magic which I would have enjoyed more of. But a great show nonetheless the less.
My husband and I were impressed with this show and all the incredible visual effects. So many things to watch from all sides. There was no bad seat as the stage is in the round and you could see what was going on from any spot you had!
The production/dancing was mediocre at best. The story was unimaginative and silly. The scenes seemed repetitive. There were a few acrobatic performances that were very good. Overall not worth the money or time.
I was disappointed in this Cirque show. It was more like a Disney stage show that would be performed at Disneyland. The lead female performer was amazing. She was very physical constantly running, jumping and flipping throughout the production. For the most part the show was uninteresting.
Please don't waste your time or money on this horrible show! It even included a couple malfunctions in which you would not expect with a show that has been around for awhile.
It was a very confusing story and difficult to follow. The theatre is very nice but the production and most of all, the content is very poor.
Great seats anywhere. Loved the stage mechanism. Audio perfect with speakers. Entertainers were perfection!
This show was so tacky, with terrible acting, a boring storyline and underwhelming effects. I have seen most of the shows on the strip and this was so terrible in comparison. My husband and I thought about walking out but waited to see if it would get better... it did not.
Nothing special Few special effects but the story is very weak
This show has it all! Dance, music, illusion, comedy, amazing costuming, acrobats, puppetry, a storyline, lighting effects, technology, even comfy seating and popcorn! Don’t miss this show on your next Vegas trip!
The show is a classic case of trying to do too many things - drama, gymnastics, special effects, story telling, dancing, singing etc.; but not do anything really well. The story line is explained well but cannot hide from the fact that after all, it is a weak story.
Very entertaining show. Great for any age level. Would be 5 stars but kinda expensive for length of show.
