';O'; %26amp;Mystere vs.Ka %26amp; LaReve
YOu might be disappointed with Ka...I haven%26#39;t seen it personally, but I%26#39;ve had friends who have seen every Cirque show and said this was disappointing by comparison.
Have you considered Zumanity?

Hi, I have seen all 4 of the shows - out of O and Mystere I found O far superior. Of Ka and Le Reve I would definately recommend the latter. IMO Le Reve has the same %26#39;wow factor%26#39; as O, the view is excellent no matter where you are seated. I found Ka a big disappointment.
LaReve by far. Ka had parts where you were hoping the grand finale was coming soon!
Plus, it was more expensive for much less ';WOW';!!
For all practical purposes - LaReve most certainly is CDS. Created by the same man, Franco Dragone, who created ';O';. Not sure why they split, but its all the same. LaReve is a rambling, 90 minute romp through the apparent crack induced dreams of a hot babe in a red dress. Lots of diving and jumping into the water. For some reason 4 men dressed in 50%26#39;s style garb run around the audience looking for bald men to place red swimming caps on and then later the entire cast will chastise the unlucky man who dares to remove it. There are numerous arial stunts as well as the diving...the theatre in the round setting makes all seats excellent, but I wasnt sure what I was looking at. Stay away from the first 5 rows - you will get wet. about 1/2 way up is best.
I was more impressed at the diving skills. I even managed to fall asleep for a moment and awoke to a bare breasted woman running around on stage. When I asked why she was nude - hubby said ';dont know, dont care...she just is.'; I guess thats Vegas for you. Our limo driver to the show that night said Ka was better.
You might consider LOVE at the Mirage.
Well, I guess I am the lone opinion here. I thought Ka was wonderful. We saw it this summer (5 of us) and were very impressed. I don%26#39;t know if I would put it at the top with Mystere and O, but definately above Zumanity!! Each CdS show has a different flavor and we were prepared for the fact that Ka had a story line to follow. Basically good vs. evil. The stage itself was awesome. Have not seen LaReve, so cannot offer an opinion there.

Haven%26#39;t seen LaReve, but have seen the others. Ka is fantastic. It is amazing. Audiences walk out buzzing with excitement. Mystere is fun. Love is a real feel good show. Again audience reaction speaks volumes. Everybody happy.
Saw O because we just had to. I started looking at my watch early. Wife and daughter not as happy as at the other shows. Lots of grumbling. Very well done but best seen by those that enjoy lots of swimming, especially the syncronized kind.
Like I have said before, Cirque is running out of really cool acrobatic ideas and it now turning more towards dancing and visual imagery. I have seen La Reve and thought it was beautiful, but I kept waiting for the OMG moment. My favorite Cirque show is Mystere. It is good old school cirque show. Love is great for music and cool stuff falling from the sky. But I want the OMG moment.
I have seen all of them but %26#39;O%26#39; and by FAR Ka was the best. It ws the only one with a story line and the stage is spectacular. All the rest seem remotely the same to me, but Ka was different, and I would see it again in a heartbeat.
