Went to see Cirque du Soleil's Amaluna tonight!
They don't allow photography inside the theatre, so I got some shots of the Grand Chapiteau as per usual. The show, needless to say, was amazing. To be honest, I don't think I could be disappointed by a Cirque du Soleil show. I would say, however, that though the acrobatics are on par with Totem and Quidam, I thought Amaluna's stage set and costumes stood out more to me. They were just stunning. It was my friend's first time watching a Cirque du Soleil show, and as we were leaving, all she said was, "Guys, that was a truly religious experience."

I've never been to a Cirque du Soleil yet - must be remedied soon! Hate that these shows never let us take pics, though I know that all the flashes would be distracting to the performers.
ReplyDeleteDidn't ever think about souvenirs from Cirque but love that mug & notebook!
Cirque du Soleil is ridiculous in the best way possible. I got super addicted, so I basically have to go to every single show that comes to Toronto now. You need to see one show at least once in your life. You won't regret it. During intermission, my friend was like, "YOU NEED TO TAKE ME TO EVERY CIRQUE SHOW NOW."
DeleteAnd yeah, I get why there's no photography in the theatre... the stunts that they have to do are really dangerous and anything distracting can really be fatal. :(
I get a mug from every Cirque show I go to! It's tradition now, lol.
