I first saw a Cirque du Soleil performance while aboard an airplane watching the in-flight television free channel available. I was enthralled by the talent of the performers and made it a point that the next time I visited Las Vegas, I would see a live Cirque du Soleil show. And I did!
My first Cirque du Soleil show that I saw two years ago was Zumanity, a provocative cabaret-style production that left me in awe for more. Then last year, I saw KA, an unprecedented, gravity-defying production that takes adventure to an all new level. Again, I’m in awe yearning for more!
So this year, this coming weekend, in fact, when I’m in Las Vegas for BlogWorld, I have tickets to see LOVE, the musical legacy of The Beatles. I am so excited, as from the reviews of my friends, this one is better than the previous ones I’ve seen!
Now I just saw there is a new Cirque du Soleil show entitled Banana Shpeel, a joyful rendez-vous with beauty and power of the human body that is a roller-coaster mix of styles that blends comedy with tap, hip hop, eccentric dance and slapstick, all linked by a hilarious narrative that ignites a succession of wacky adventures.
Right now they are currently only touring in Chicago and New York City, which are also cities I frequent, so maybe I’ll get a chance to see the Banana Man, Emmett and Shmelky live in person. Learn more about the Cirque du Soleil Banana Shpeel show here!
Did you watch the truTV’s Rehab Season premiere on Tuesday, September 1st (2009) at 10p / 9c? If not, you can watch Sneak Peeks online and tune in for all new episodes on Tuesday at 10p / 9c.
So, what is truTV’s Rehab?
Go behind the scenes of Rehab, the hottest party in the world’s sexiest city. Get an inside look at how security and staff indulge big-spending customers but still keep the chaos under control. This season, the scene at the pool is even hotter with celebrity performances, more partiers and new Rehab staffers trying to learn the ropes. Plus, competition from neighboring hotel pool parties and the pressure to keep sales up during this troubled economy has everyone trying to keep Rehab the biggest and best party on the Vegas Strip.
Looks like a total fun and excitement to me that I wish I could be there! I’ve been to the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, but never there for an actual party, just sight-seeing and some gambling. But I’ve been other parties in Las Vegas (at the Palm’s, Wynn, Rio, etc), so can vividly imagine what it would be like. Although if I was there, not sure I’d want to be part of real life television for all to see!
