KA - Not Up to "Cirque" Reputation
Review by: JJTrain, Jan 30, 2008
|
Saw KA back in October 2007. Very disappointed. Cirque's attempt to build a storyline into the show, rather than stick to the tried and true acrobatics from the start, certainly backfired, not just for my wife, my daughter and me, but for the vast majority of our fellow audience members. Where everyone playfully interacted with the performers before the show began, everyone we saw filed out at the end, avoiding any interaction with the players.... read more.
Granted we entered exhausted and perhaps prone to some dozing off, but the hoopla surrounding any show with the "Cirque Du Soleil" name should have more than kept us awake, and it simply did not. Not surprised it's closing.
Don't believe those too ashamed to admit they didn't get their money's worth. We saw "V" when it was still at Venetian, for a fraction of what KA cost us, and I'd have traded prices between the two any day. Save your money and wait for Wicked (saw on Bway, fantastic).

Sad to see it go.

It's sad to hear that KA will be closing (MGM bought the rights for a resident company of WICKED, so KA must exit stage right). It was one of the better Cirque shows out here (WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Zumanity). If you can, catch it before it closes.

Another Big Time Misfire!
Review by: RALPHIE, Sep 11, 2007
|
KA is EASY to describe. It's another silly creation by Cirque de Solieul to take your money and waste your time.
KA has a shallow, silly story about two siblings separated at birth who struggle to get back together. Mostly though, what you remember is a giant, oversized wheel (about 120 feet in diameter) that slowly turns on its side while lots of people fall off -- sort of Titanic without the ship.

KA must be experienced!!!
Review by: lighting designer's dad, Mar 15, 2007
|

KA' cannot be described, it must be experienced. Go and see it if you in LV. It is very expensive, but is worth every penny of the price. I took my son, who is about to enter grad school in lighting design, and he was almost without words. What they do with lighting is beyond belief, as is everything else Cirque does in this show. We just sent away to order the behind-the-scenes documentary Cirque sells showing how KA was developed. We can't ... read more wait to see how they did it.

a little slow at point, but totally worth it just for the technicality of the production, a show in itself. if you're going to see one show in vegas, especially a cirque show, make it KA

I saw this show on a Tuesday night and went expecting to be blown away. The theater was amazing and the ambiance set the appropriate mood. Unfortunately, the show was (in my opinion) not up to Cirque standards. On several ocassions, I found myself drifting away from the storyline (it just couldnt hold my attention).
This was the least enjoyable of the three Cirque. Both O and Mystere were much better in my opinion. The quality ... read more of the performance was not up to the price of the tickets. Save your money and see another show
