text: This was our first Cirque show in Las Vegas, despite half a dozen trips to the Strip in the last couple years.  We'd read up on reviews beforehand so we knew that this was more a Broadway style show than a straight Cirque show.  So we didn't enter the theater with any illusions.\n\nEarlier in the day as we purchased our tickets at the Box Office, we were given 2-for-1 drink coupons in the nearby Gold Lounge.  Before the show, we stopped in to redeem them...but that's another review.\n\nThe theater is decently sized with comfy overstuffed chairs and drink holders.  Our seats were row W, along the side center walkway.  As a previous review noted, the show is very center stage oriented so we were glad we hadn't gone with the along-the-wall seats on the main floor.  We would have been closer to the stage but our view would have been skewed.\n\nBefore the show started, about ten of the performers wandered the ground floor aisles entertaining audience members.\n\nThe show itself is definitely Broadway-styled.  A single Elvis impersonator never appears but rather, they have woven pictures, videos, home movies & Elvis-inspired performers throughout the acts.  Slower songs had split vocals with four excellent live female singers.  They had amazing voices & we really enjoyed them.  The live band is fabulous as well - the drummer is a hoot!  That guy had boundless energy and was always moving for the entire 90 minute show.\n\nThe song arrangements are fun & very modern.  Lots of pounding bass & dance beats layered over everything.  We liked it so much we purchased the show cd afterwards.  Kudos to them for updating Elvis' \nmusic and keeping it contemporary.\n\nThe acrobatic acts are interspersed with the musical/dance numbers.  For the price of the tickets, we were really expecting a little more Cirque and a little less Broadway.  That being said, the acts that were included were very entertaining.  They have a multi-trampoline act that was a riot.  I swear the guys were monkeys flying around.  Each act is themed around a specific song or period in the life of Elvis...we were really wondering just how they'd incorporate the French-Canadian circus performers with the hillbilly King of Rock n Roll.  While some of them are a little tenuous, they did their best to keep the flow going.\n\nWe noticed a fair amount of empty seats in the balcony, so don't pay full price for the tickets anywhere.  They have them on sale in multiple locations including the discount ticket centers on the Strip and also online in a $100 for two ticket deal.
