We loved the show! Very family friendly. Great acts and audience interaction.
This show was excellent! Circus as it was in the 1900s. Focus on acrobatic feats. Lots of charm and laughs for younger children. My 10 year old loved it and 13 year old loved it as she is into the Steampunk/ 1890s/1900s era. Great laughs, family show. Recommended.
Too much talking, not enough acts. Good interaction with the audience. Age appropriate for young kids. Overall, not worth the price of the ticket.
This production was like taking a step back in time...it brought back memories of hearing stories my (long gone) relatives would tell about the excitement of the circus coming to the small towns in America many years ago. It was a perfect evening for reflection - especially during this holiday season. The MC was so clever in the way he interacted with the audience; he was very funny & quick witted with the children he brought onstage. He provided many laughs for the adults. There was time to watch each act because the focus was actually on one act at a time. Do not go in expecting a Cirque show...go in & enjoy the reflection of a step back in time!
The idea of a Circus from 1903 intrigued me. What old time acts and the tricks could they have conjured back then and would they be entertaining? I was not disappointed, the acts were skillfully done and the entertainers were full of fun and enthusiasm. The ringmaster was the cherry on the cake, he was witty and skillful. His use of children from the audience brought the audience in closer and gave a more personal feeling. I was overcome with laughter on several occasions by the event and will come back again.
I read reviews of this show and got raves from friends. Now some of the reviews don't make sense--there is no intermission; there is no second act. Not all of the acts perform in every show--the ushers told me that the acts are rotated. Some of the acts I particularly wanted to see weren't on. The acts that were on were great, and the "elephants" are spectacular. But if you expect to see all the acts from the video clips you'll be disappointed.
What a hokey show. Some of the jokes were inappropriate for kids but probably went over their heads. Very little content. The elephant puppet was extraordinary but that was it! Don’t go- waste of money.
My wife and I are actually amazed that somewhat with power and influenced green lighted this show. It had little redeeming value and I’ll be shocked if it is still playing in three months. Save your money and go see any other show on the strip!
I have been wanting to see this show since I read about it but it hasn't toured to my city yet. I was excited to see if had a short stay in Las Vegas. Theater staff was amazing and friendly. The MC of the show (the ringmaster) was hilarious and interacted with the kids. Circus acts were great and full of so much talent. My favorite part was the huge elephant puppets. We enjoyed the show. We were sad to hear of the show closing weeks early in Vegas. This may not have been the best city for it as there are so many Cirque du Soleil and other similar entertainment options. But of this show tours to your city please do not hesitate to see it.
