Very entertaining tricks where brill
Absolutely brilliant show !!! Never seen live theatre before but met every expectation and more !! Me and my girlfriend where amazed!
I have seen the cirque du soleil before and been blown away, but was disappointed this time. There was a lot of ‘comedy’ nonsense and very little content . Would be very unlikely to book again.
Amazing performers, witty and daredevil
Amazing performance!!! Stunning! V expensive tickets though.
Amazing show at a great venue. A real shame about the unscheduled break that took place part way through the first section
A great show but not as magical as Cirque used to be. It’s slightly lost it’s touch with the lack of magical characters. Still a lovely experience though.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable performance. I had been given the tickets as a Christmas present, as I had always wanted to see the Cirque du Soleil. From the moment the show begins you are transfixed by the stunning performances by all the performers. The acts were quite magical, the ease at which all the actors performed their specific routines was stunning.
Loved it from beginning to end. Royal Albert Theatre added another layer of appreciation. All the performers were brilliant, the special effects amazing.
Great show great venue!!!!
I have seen the cirque du Soleil years before and thought the show was better then .
A fantastic show. Pure magic.
