I just got an email from the cirqueclub saying they'll be in Toronto between Aug.13-24.
The ticket prices are $40,$60, $70 and $90.

I might pick 2 up at $60 each I think. $40 spots are just terrible and $70 is just a number of rows above them (still up front at the corner..they have these poles that may be in the way too).

I'm trying to locate $90 tickets and it's returning any results. It's either full or the system is messed up. I tried it for the 22nd, 23rd and 24th.

Anyone heard any good things about this show? How does it compare the Las Vegas one Mystere?

I watched it last year and quite enjoyed it. Of course I cannot compare it to any other CdS show as I have never watched any other.

It is the oldest of their touring shows, so some elements might be dated. But it was great fun nonetheless.

I can not find any of the $90 tickets either. I assume those are the floor sections (E1, E2 and E3).

Anyone have any idea where to get them other with scalper websites with huge mark ups?

For Cirque shows, I generally don't recommend the most expensive seats. Their stage design and choreograph is geared more towards viewers from the mid-way and up. Sitting too close to the stage will make your neck sore, and you would miss out on the grand scheme of plays they intended to display.

Yeah. My mom saw "O" at the Bellagio and said the exact same thing.

Just picked up some $70 tickets. Section 103 - had to call in and jump hoops to get to talk to a person finally to get that section. Online it didn't matter what I put in, it kept giving like 120 and 107 sections.
