About

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.

    Breathtaking and exhilarating!

    by ShuShu on 5/10/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    My fiancé has been to others and declared this one the very best! The audience participation was so fun and raunchy in a classy way. The performances were utterly sensual, beyond creative, had us holding our breath! This was the most stunning example of sensuous movement and extremely thrilling acrobatics anyone could hope to experience. From the moment the red cape glided over our heads just before the exceptional African-style dance beginning that thrummed to the glorious end- a sight to behold !!

    Disappointed

    by J. D. on 4/25/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    This show did not live up to all advertising & hype. There were some funny jokes, but the rest of them were old. The athletes/actors were very skilled in their routines. There was a lot of audience participation, but nothing unique. Over all the show was just ok.

    It was a sexy entertaining show with a variety of performers

    by C. on 3/31/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    There was a lot of sexy, erotic dancing and high flying aerial acts as well as two female contortionists who perform in a gigantic water filled martini glass. There also were two comedians who did a skit that involved sexual innuendos with audience participation. The show was definitely sexually themed with a diverse group of performers. I really enjoyed the show and recommend seeing it.

    A 'Must-see' when in Las Vegas

    by DJ U4ic on 3/13/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    This show has it all, comedy, sexuality and acrobats. Get there at least 15 minutes early for the very funny pre-show. This 18 plus show is for open-minded adults only. If you are a prude, then pick another show.

    Not expected

    by J. D. on 3/5/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    To be honest, I went with my wife because we love all Cirque de Soleil events, and I chose this one by the name without reading what is all about. We thought it was about animals (well, kind of) but we got the surprise of a cabaret style cirque. We were greatly impressed by this show.

    Not all I expected, but good

    by a. a. on 2/22/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    Honestly, I was expecting an amazing experience because of the advertising and also because I've been to other Cirque du Soleil shows. It was entertaining and fun but nothing spectacular or surprising. still, there were good acrobats and acts

    Bad jokes

    by J. on 2/11/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    The show was ok, but the heavy jokes are not what you expect for a Cirque du Soleil spectacle. There is room for more elegant and smart humor.

    Sensually delicious

    by Brian on 1/29/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    Deliciously sexy and sensual. Great lighting, sound, costumes, and stage use. Loved the crowd involvement and cast members using the entire theatre. Only downside is that it felt like a B Level Cirque show without the grandness you'd expect from Love, O and other premiere shows. Still worth going, and I'd go again, but understand the expectations.

    Fun-tastic!

    by Kevin T on 1/25/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    I’ve watched quite a few cirque du soleil shows in Las Vegas, Zumanity has to be the funniest in my opinion. If you’re looking for a completely artistic circus show with big props and huge stage, maybe you should pick shows like O and KA, or a show with a romantic storyline like Le Rêve. But if you want to enjoy a show which makes you laugh nonstop the whole night, Zumanity surely is the one to go for. Don’t get me wrong, the acts of Zumanity is still an excitement to watch and definitely gave me chills, but the slightly sexual kick and huge comedy twist are the best addition to the circus act. Do not miss out on this show like I had been for years!!

    WOW! Fantastic Talent All in This Show!

    by NavySinger517 on 1/22/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    This show has everything! It's Sensual, SEXY, Moving, Erotic, Musical, Lyrical, AMAZING, Breath Taking, and sometimes - NAUGHTY! We had a wonderfully fun evening! If you don't have an open mind or don't appreciate the human body, you will not like this show. It is Cirque meets burlesque show! The performers, all extremely talented and exciting, gave a performance to remember. The couple and two heavy girls who performed during transitions were funny, at times crude, but it made us laugh!

    A fun show.

    by Joe on 1/18/19Zumanity Theatre at New York - New York Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas

    It was a funny show. Some good acrobatics. A little more 'adult' than anticipated so don't take the family. Ha ha!
