Cirque Du Soleil

Thanks to Jon's dad, I have seen some really great shows this summer. The Blue Man Group and Cirque Du Soleil are the best two shows I've ever seen so far (hopefully, more to come in the near future, heehee). The Blue Man Group was a very innovative show, interactive and fun experience, lots of surprises.

This Wed, we went to the Cirque du Soleil. Almost everytime when they come to a city, they introduce a new theme. This time, our show is called Corteo. I felt in love with it. I kept thinking about how much thought the whole circus crew have put into the show, it's amazingly creative. I love the stage design, I love the costumes and I love the characters, everything is so detailed and articulated, glazed with a layer of Romanticism.

Jon didn't really appreciate the artistic & theatrical aspects that much, he wished there was more focus on the acrobat stuff. (You can't trust his taste, coz he is a little bit color blind ;p Plus this was his 6th visit to the Cirque...he likes their previous ones better ) I think it is not the most perfect performance, but I love it. I admire the effort they have put into it; this artistic circus shows imaginations and skills. Bravo & Bravo!

I just found out they have a video clip of the show on their website. You have to see this, coz my words don't do the justice, hee. click here

O, o, and they are playing in HK in Nov too, different theme and different crew tho, but it's really worth to go seeing it! Highly recommended, 5 stars out of 5*. ;p
