Vacation for the cast is the most likely reasoning.

I agree, they definately deserve to have a break every so often, their work must be incredibly tiresom and take its tole on the body.

Nooooooooooooooooooo!! Not while I'm there......oh wait I just won't pay the outrageous prices for a show of weird(yet cool)acts.So I guess I'm not missing anything unless they had discount tickets then I might go as most of my money is funneled towards the parks and souveniers!

Outstanding show. Outrageous price. Well worth it. You gotta splurge and go at least once.

I will say that I could not believe how much tickets were when we went to the box office. The last day we were on our vacation we realized that we had like $400 left in spending money that we had put aside so we shelled out the $75 a ticket (i think thats how much it was). That was the most that i had ever payed for a stage ticket like that. The show was absolutely incredible and now after seeing it, the next time that we are down there the money for tickets will already be in the budget and i will be more than happy to pay it again.

The prices seem steep for a one-and-a-half show when compared to the cost of a full day at a themepark. But when you consider the nature of what is going on (the venue, the personnel, the skill level, etc.), the price seems much more reasonable.

Go see a Cirque show anywhere else.. or any stage show in Vegas for instance. $100/ticket range is pretty normal. Try checking out a broadway play or similar!
Disney seems expensive if you compare it to the ball pit at the local kids gym - but they aren't the same... just as the stage shows are not the same as a theme park.

Not to be rude, but when you are going to a show like Cirque, you are not going to a theme park or anything like that. Broadway/Vegas/London stage shows are very expensive because theyre very extravagant and have large casts and a number of things that cause the tickets to be so high in price.
Cirque is supposed to be a nice night at the theater, not something comparable to a theme park experience. So the price comparison with the theme park tickets is ridiculous. Good theater and good shows are expensive and should be nice experiences; the only reason its not nicer at WDW is because of all of the yokels/tourists who wear their hawaiian shirts and flip flops to a nice evening show.
You stay classy tourists...:ROFLOL:

What he said.
The big Cirque shows in Vegas are priced at LEAST this high, often higher. Speaking of, to those who have seen both, how does La Nouba compare with one of the big productions out in LV?

I'm not sure what theater production you can go to for $75, certainly not here in NY.
I took my 13 yr old nephew last year and he thought it was excellent, even much better than Blue Men Group, which we had seen two nights before at Universal. It was an amazing show and worth every penny. We sat down for the show and when it ended, I couldn't believe it was over, I said we couldn't have been here 1 1/2 hrs already.
There are certain times of the year that they offer AP discounts and I recall reading about buying the tickets through some place else for a slight discount, but can't recall where.

Add me in for a thumbs up and a definate money worth show!
I loved it! :ROFLOL:
I think one week off is not enough for the hard work that the cast puts in!

This happened last year too. We tried to book tickets towards the end of our holiday but couldn't get anything (the lady at the box office was a bit confused, she thought her machine was lying to her because there should be a show every night).
The good news is that we managed to get some the day before it closed and it was amazing! We didn't have very good seats (i.e. cheapest seats in the far corner) but I thought the view was great, kind of glad we didn't go for the expensive tickets!
