ZUMANITY, your opinion please
 
While in NY or Las Vegas, did anyone take in Zumanity (Cirque du Soleil) ?

If so, would you recommend it?
Thanks so much, Kate

I've never seen it so I can't give a review but I can tell you it's only in L.V. at the NY NY Casino/hotel.

My mom saw it though (in her 60's) and didn't care too much for it. I think she said some parts got a bit homo erotic and she just didn't care to see that. But my sis also said she thinks Cirque du Soleil changed the show a bit since then.
Anyway I'd highly recommend O and my mom likes Mystere too if you haven't yet seen those.

Ugh, keb! Okay I was very confused, and pretty excited to have a show nearby (NYC) to give as a Birthday gift. Thanks for the clarification.

I really enjoyed Varakai, and am looking forward to another CDS performance someday, somewhere...

Not that it will help you now, but Zumanity is extremely different from all the other Cirque shows. It's a very artistic look at sex, and not for the faint of heart.

Check out www.cirquedusoleil.com to see if any of the traveling shows will be near you anytime soon.

I saw it at NYNY and liked it. If you are at all uptight about sex (any type) or the human body you won't like it.
I would rate it below O and Mystere in quality (haven't seen Ka yet).

My personal opinion of Zumanity? Trash!

I think the confusion over location arises from the fact that Zumanity is located in the New York-New York HOTEL in Las Vegas. It is not IN New York.
