Going to Vegas next month, and I've always wanted to see one of the cirque de soleil shows. Unfortunately the Beatles LOVE isn't playing the night I can go, but Mystère, ?O?, KÀ, and ZUMANITY will be showing that night.

Anyone seen these, and have recommendations?

Also, are there any websites or places I can get cheaper tickets? Or if I stay in the hotel the show is playing at, will I get a discount?

I saw Ka a while back and it was pretty awesome. I recommend that.

EDIT: Mystere is old but it's still pretty good.

Ka was awesome (The music is great too!). I heard O is the best one though. I wanted to see Zumanity but we didn't have enough time. I say go for Ka or O. Zumanity I hear is a little more adult based so watch that if you are horny or something...

I saw KA last month when I was in Vegas. It was awesome and we had really good seats so it was cool.

Yeah let me add something... if you're going to see Ka it's well worth it to shell out some extra dough and get good seats. I think I was 10 rows from front.

Zumanity. My coworker tells me that they're all pretty good but to avoid Mystere if possible.

That's strange. My parents saw Mystere and they loved it.

The only cirque show you need to see is Zumanity. To convince you, the first act is a gigantic glass see through bowl, three topless girls in white thongs perform undertwater, and side-of-the-bowl-handstand-splitty-type-holy-shit-how-did-they-do-that moves for about 10 minutes.

Go there, wear lose fitting pants.

When I saw KA, we bought tickets for $80 and they were 5 row from the front. I think my friend brought them from travelzoo. Don't see any deals right now though.

This is the only other discount that I could find: link. Browse to the bottom of the thread for correct links.

go the gameworks/m&m/ coke area by the mgm day of tickets. they sell all the unsold seats at 30-70% off assuming you are going on a weeknight show you should have no problem.

LOVE is also really great, shame its not available.
