Any good or bad thoughts on Le Reve.

It's excellent. Arrive early -- there's some "pre-show" comedy.

(It's basically a Le Cirque show.)

I agree. I saw it in late January and it was the first time I've seen this kind of show. It was mesmerizing. Incredible gymastics and diving in an amazing theater.

Very good. I've seen three Cirque shows, and while I enjoyed Mystère as much as Le Reve, none of the Cirque shows made my mouth hang open like this show did.

I would pay to see it a second time.

Take your camera. They encourage you to take photos during the pre-show.

I agree. We really enjoyed the show and would see it again.

Basically the same as the other Cirque shows, but this one is done over water.....so somewhat similar to "O." It's a rotating stage, so there's really no bad seat in the house.

I guess some people like Le Reve but not enough because Steve Wynn is going to over-haul it. According to what I have read in Vegas newspapers it is not doing well and is being reworked. I have not seen it but friends said "it's just another Cirque show" .. and since I am not a big Cirque fan I have passed on seeing it.

If you are looking for a Cirque show the new one, "Love", at the Mirage is supposed to be fantastic. It's based on the Beatles & their music. I will see that one next trip up in the Fall.

I saw Love and it is awesome. I didn't see Le Reve. I would see them both if I were Mike. It is good to see 2 shows so you can compare.

I was surprised that my good seats for LeReve that I booked a few days ago were only $100 -- less than the Cirque shows. Meanwhile Love is dark the entire time we're in Las Vegas next month! What a disappointment that is!

I believe we're in the fifth row. It was funny because trying to book on line, all I could get was the very first row. When I called, there were lots better options. I also know it was cheaper on Mondays than weekends.

On the other hand we went for the $150 seats for KA, as they are 8th row center section. The next options were at the very back or the extreme sides for only $25 less.

I also love the "discount" sites you can google. You can get "discounted" seats to either of those shows for about $200 each. HUH?

Thanks.

The reason I asked, was when I saw the show, the first 3 rows (the "wet" seats) were about $100. The higher rows were $24 or so more.

I was in the third row and didn't get wet.

Neo,

regarding your earlier comments today about a connection to a fashion line mentioned on the Today show...

check out this list to that line's fashion shows - Bizarre!

The front row was $80 for our night. I wasn't worried about getting wet, just thought I'd like to be back a little bit.
Their webite has a glitch in that it offers you two seats. If you say try again, it won't do anything until you release those two seats. When you release them, that's all they'll offer you again.
That's when I called.

You can get 20% off Le Reve at the half price ticket booth.

Liked Mystere better but enjoyed Le Reve over "O".

I'm going back to vegas in August and seeing Le Reve for the 3rd time. I've sat 1st row last time around and got a little wet but no big deal, they give towels to the front row anyway. IMO best show along with Mystere. I've seen Ka and O and felt they weren't worth the money. I prefer the intimacy of Le Reve.
