Cirque du Soleil: Zumanity at New York-New York Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas
Zumanity is hot, heavy and heart-stopping. This is Cirque du Soleil's most playful and provocative performance — a self-proclaimed "erotic thrill ride." Written and directed by René Richard Cyr and Dominic Champagne, Zumanity has given the Las Vegas Strip an extra dose of sex — without the sin — since it premiered in 2003 at the New York-New York Hotel & Casino. Unlike other family-friendly Cirque productions, this cabaret-style show is for mature eyes only, but still features the brand's world-class dance and acrobatics, with a touch of humor and nonstop thrills. In 2015, the show was revamped to feature updated characters, music, choreography and costumes. All attire has been designed by French fashion designer Thierry Mugler, who makes liberal use of fur, leather, velvet, feathers and cone bras — the quintessential Vegas look.
About the show Zumanity
Cirque du Soleil: Zumanity showcases all the beauty, grace and possibilities of the human body. Hosted by the Mistress of Sensuality, the show runs through a mind-boggling array of titillating acts that flirt with the limits of movement, sex and sensuality. It undulates between big, flashy dance numbers and quiet, intimate performances, highlighted by colorful — if not barely-there — dress and incredible displays of strength, flexibility and athleticism. To get the audience in the mood, the Spirits of the Wind perform an elegant dance on the rose-petal-strewn stage before Afrique, the African Queen, kicks up the pace. From there, two women — who also happen to be extraordinary contortionists — purify their love in the "Water Bowl." The mohawked Biker flips, twists and clings to a chain, sometimes by the mere strength of his feet. And a woman's fantasy becomes reality, all from the precarious seat of a giant hoop. There's also a stunning aerial silks act, a suggestive use of aerial straps, a James Bond–inspired striptease, juggling, breakdancing, S&M teasing, and a pink-champagne–filled tub that becomes a desirable playground for free spirits and free love. The best part: Audience members are invited to join in on the erotic fun at the end.

Not fun. Not entertaining. Save your money and don’t go
Show was good, live band is amazing BUT as stated in other reviews they try to upsale you to a couch "seat" as you sit down for the show. I am not paying more money for a show I already paid to see.
This show is everything that it's advertised to be. A little burlesque, a lot of laughter and edge of your seat excitement. The cast members were all amazing and certainly memorable. I would recommend this show to anyone and everyone. I'll make it a point to see it again the next time I'm in Vegas.
A wonderful show, from the pre show entertainment right to the end. The MC has a magical ability to weave a true connection between the audience and the performers. Loved it, absolutely adored it, my husband did as well.. if we could we would see it ten times more.... Went to many shows while in Vegas, but enjoyed this more than any other combined.....
Reminded us more of a drag show (with real titties) which is fun of course, but not Cirque du Soleil pricing/expectations.
Great Cirque event. Raunchy, Sexy, Fun. Enjoyed the whole show.
Very talented performers, sexy and with surprising humor
Fun show. Great choreography. Funny hosts. Very talented performers
From the interactions with the crowd to the humor added into embracing all aspects of sexuality I couldn’t have enjoyed it more! Amazing is an understatement.
OMG! I don't even know where to begin! The hostess, the hype man, the performers, the girls who interacted with the audience - they were all absolutely fabulous! In true Cirque fashion, the show gave us plenty to see and be amazed by. My senses went into overload as I was treated to aerial, water, musical, spoken word, dance, and so much more that kept everyone mesmerized. Casanova even adopted me as his "cousin" from Dallas during the show! It was a sensual, artistic, and alluring experience that I plan to see again. I was just here for my birthday in June, and saw Mystere - which was also incredible - but I had to come back to Vegas just to see Zumanity, and was not disappointed. I highly recommend this one for people of all ages and sexual preferences. Thank you and keep bringing the smiles Cirque du Soleil!
Cabaret at its finest, literally. Make sure you get there before well before the start time to enjoy sexy cam interaction with audience. One might need a cigarette after this show, figuratively speaking that is.
Kept you on the edge of your seat for some of the performances. very unexpected twists and turns. never knew what was happening next. worth the money and time!!!
This show is not for the straight laced, modest people. There’s lots of crude humor, and sexual references. At first I was a little unsure of how this show would turn out, but it was AWESOME! Dancing, aerial tricks, and lots of laughs!
Great show, from start to finish. Funny, passionate and high flying. Highly recommend!!
This is an amazing show and I strongly recommend it. We had a blast!
This show was everything. It’s a must see! I will definitely recommend to others.
The show was amazing. Very funny but not for kids. It was classy and sensual. Reccomend it highly!
My husband and I were kind of shocked - this show is ribald and bawdy. Some of the skits were just childish. But the performers were amazing, as always with Cirque. We sat in balcony, which I recommend, as they take people out of the audience - and you do not want to be chosen! In all, we were glad we went - but probably LOVE would have been a better choice.
Start out by saying. This an adult only show!! My wife wanted to see the show. I really didn’t want to. Wow, am I glad I went. This is a great event for couples. I highly recommend this show while in Vegas!! Very sexy, and they get the audience envolved in the show. It’s funny, sexy, entertaining, and a five star show.
Very cool theatrical time... lots of excitement. Funny and sexy.
