Fun, Creative, Original. Review by: Snow woman, Dec 8, 2008 |
| Everybody will enjoy this show. It was such a fun and creative show I ever seen. Kids were so excited the whole time. They are still talking about it over and over and over... I promise you will love it. We loved it so much that we went to see it twice. |

Brilliant, but not for everyone Review by: SlavaFan, Nov 7, 2008 |
| Amazing, amazing, amazing show. But to enjoy it, you have to have an appreciation for the subtle and for artistry. Yes, the costumes are "ragged" as one reviewer commented, but they are supposed to be, it is part of the design. I thought the show was brilliantly creative and unexpected and funny and poignant, and the music is fantastic. Not everyone will get it though. If you're looking for mainstream showtunes and elaborate sets and ... read more razzle-dazzle, this is not for you. If you enjoy artistic expression, have a quirky sense of humor, and a vivid imagination, you will LOVE this. I saw it last year and can't wait to see it again. |

Something you should know about this show Review by: Samuel, Oct 15, 2008 |
| Ok, people who expect to see jingling acts and some acrobatics similar to Cirque De Solel .... this is not that kind of a show. If you go to the theater and your mind only understand things that are clearly visible then you just won't understand this show. .... Slava has been doing this show for over 20 years now. Think about it. If it was as bad as some people write ... would it ever be so popular? Bottom line is ... if you understand this show ... read more you'll LOVE it. If you want people jumping through hoops, balancing on a wire or spitting fire, see a different show. I personally saw over 15 different shows and this is by far THE BEST show I've see On and Off Broadway. |

Mimes meet clowns Review by: Atheli, Aug 24, 2008 |
| The description of this show is extremely misleading. It said that this show was a cross between Cirque Du Soleil and Blue Man group. I expected some acrobatics, some amazing costumes, and alot of entertainment. It was a major let down. The true description is a show with mimes dressed up as clowns. So, if you are into that, then you'll love it. But if you expect something else, you'll be greatly disappointed. It was too pricey and too boring. I ... read more think the real point of the show is that the performers are laughing at you because you're the clown who paid alot of $$$ to see this! |

Slava failed me... Review by: bellisima, Jul 25, 2008 |
After seeing so many Cirque du Soleil show, this was a true dissapointment. It is a shame that they put a show like this for viewing. There is no theatrics in it, no magic, nothing. Just overall a cheal production show, at an expensive price to the viewers. How sad. Becky

Read my review. Review by: Pianist718, Jan 26, 2008 |
I paid full price for this show and would pay again to see it again. I simply loved it. You know ... there are shows that you laugh at and once they're over you forget about it in 5 minutes? This is a show that WILL leave a mark inside your mind and heart. The music was amazing and performance as well. If you expect people jumping through hoops and flying through space ... go see CIRCUS. However if you want to experience something different ... read more and live through a show that you'll remember for years .... see Slava's Snowshow.

Slava's Loveshow. Review by: Juanzatheater, Jan 1, 2007 |
After 2 and a half years, I finally went to see Slava's Snowshow, knowing Mr Slava's previous work with Cirque du Soleil, I imagined the show was going to be beautiful, Imaginative and Funny, and yes it is all that and more, . Great for all ages, go see it, take your kids,It is MAGICAL, to the point of turning perfect strangers into play pals, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, political believes, and all of the other silly things ... read more that separate us, this show taps into our humanity, our esence, to prove tha it is possible to have peace. I don't want to spoiled your expirience so I won't tell you more. Go see it and have Fun, You'll remember this show for the rest of your lifes. |

Fabulous! Review by: Marianne Z, Dec 30, 2006 |
| I was pleasantly suprised that I enjoyed this show so much! I laughed so hard that I cried. We had third row seats so we were in the thick of the action. It was fun, fun, fun! I can't believe anyone with a sense of humor would not love this show! |

Review by: Meg, Dec 26, 2006 |
Wonderful. This is my 2nd time seeing it. My boys 4 and 8 were absolutely loved it. Interactive and very different from the run of the mill plays. If you love clowns, this is the one to see! |

Fun show! Would see again. Review by: , Nov 19, 2006 |
| I found this show to be very entertaining. I took my 10 year old and she absolutely loved it as well. You should try to sit in the orchestra if possible as there is alot of audience interaction there which is really funny. |

Something different Review by: , Nov 2, 2006 |
I have to say that I did not know what to expect but I was somewhat pleasantly surprised. I read the other reviews and can understand both sides of the coin, either you like it or dislike it. I found it to be a fun evening, thought some of the effects were great and the audience seemed to be having a good time, especially the kids.
Is it for everyone? no. Would I pay full price? no. Try to get discounted seats, it is something ... read more different, also think it is good for visitors who want to see a performance but have difficulty with the language (would recommend Stomp & BLue Man Group as well in this respect). |

Will definetely go see it again! Review by: Sue, Sep 17, 2006 |
| I thought Slava's Snowshow was one of the most amazing shows I have ever seen. There aren't even words to describe the type of "magic" that happens during the performance. It is clear to me from some of the bad reviews that I have read regarding tattered costumes, bad makeup etc. that there are many people out there who just didn't get the jist of the show. All those things are like that for a reason and interpretation. The acting, ... read more facial expressions, the interaction with the audience and the special effects were incredible. Go see this show!!! |
