Cirque de Soleil - Varekai is coming to town and I'm planning on going but at $109 a ticket I want to know if these shows are any good..

Anyone been to the previous shows that were around, whats your recommendation and would you go again?

I went to the last two. They were good however in my opinion they are not worth $109 a ticket. The tickets were purchased for me so I saw them for free and for free they are awesome :P

edited to make (more) sense

Maybe I'm just difficult to amuse but from what I've seen of Cirque de Soleil, it doesn't really look that exciting. I mean, it's just the circus.

I've got tickets to this. GF wanted to go, who was I to refuse

I went to Quidam (sp?)... it was bloody amazing... trippy s*** and crazy stunts for hours.

Same reasons I'm thinking of going, she's all excited and to be honest it looks pretty good to me as well. Just gotta get over the price :)

It's just not a circus unless there is cruelty to animals.

and you can smell elephant s***

Surely there are cheaper ways to get a root from your mrs?

I'm doing it as a gesture of how much I love her. We can go for a nice romantic dinner first, a lovely stroll along the water front, pop off to the circus and watch the show..

Then I'll shove my cock down her throat.

Hahaha classy!

I have been to the first 2 and they were great. I have tickets for this one as well.

When I heard the circus was coming down under again I thought it might be worth a look, until I looked at ticket prices.
$109.00 is the lower price for like the 'right up the back cant see s*** tickets' which are ok with a concert when its not really about seeing whats going on, but I imagine for the show of this nature, the details are going to be rather important.
The 'good' tickets were like $200.00.
Computer says no.

f*** off they're not worth $110

I would have to agree, you could stick your dick down some other girls throat for that price and you wouldn't have to take a walk or buy her dinner either.

I got tickets to see it for $99 and they are row AA which is 1st row on the right in the middle, pretty good stuff and I am excited.

^ *Confused*

i've been to saltimbanco, alegria & quidam in brisbane and they all f***in rocked. so worth the money imo. also saw la nouba in disneyworld in florida. that one was pretty good too.

Oh yeh, its $109 for the Fri/Sat/Sun shows and $99 during the week I think..

f*** off they're worth the 250 for the best ones....almost

Worth watching once, as it is a little bit better than your regular circus. The shows seem to be themed, they compose their own music and some of the stunts are fairly impressive.

Went to Quidam, wouldn't go see another for more than ~ $75 though.

this is my problem with theatre and stuff

id love to go see more plays and stuff like this

just dont want to pay the rediculous ticket prices

for 100 bux at the bdo, i get entertainment all day long
