Yes, I’m pretty sure they keep them in cages at night.

Talsonic, you make it sound like Ringling Brothers based on that description alone. :p


… And you are the very first person that I’ve ever met that didn’t love it. Are you sure you saw the right show? ;)

Sorry I didn't mean to imply that it was "The Greatest Show On Earth". I would rank La Nouba with "Cats" (I didn't care for that either).

Hmm, I haven’t heard anything about that. Sounds like a falsely propagated rumor to me. I’ll check on it and let you know but I wouldn’t hold and belief in it till I find confirmation… I do know that they have on occasion, connected battery jumper cables to the cages and attached the other ends to a generator a few times to get them out and performing. If you’ve ever wondered, that’s why they have no hair and always seem wide-eyed.

you're not the only one, Talsonic! when i first started watching Cirque du Soleil on Bravo, my mom and sister hated it! they thought it was weird...they still do, actually. my dad likes it though, so thank goodness i had someone to take me to La Nouba and pay for my ticket (ALWAYS nice to have a parent with the same interests! :D ) personally, i DO think La Nouba is one of the greatest shows on earth, and i really think mom and my sister are missing out on something wonderful...but that's just me! i'm just the type of person that likes that sort of thing! :)

It was my least favorite of the 3 lives shows I've seen. Mystre in Vegas being my favorite & Dralion as #2

Thats not to say this was bad, it was good. And we going to see it again this weekend when my sister is in town.

BTW, my sister saw "O" at the Bellagio and still thought Mystre was the best.

I think I can honestly say its one of the best entertainment shows i've ever seen.
The stuff that these folk do is incredible and the good thing is that everyone gets an excellent unobstructed view.
I thought at first it was a bit pricey...but after coming out I realized that it was worth every penny.

Of course, I don’t have to tell you that there is so much more to seeing something like this live. Too bad you can’t convince them of it, right? Oh well, if nothing else, you guys have at least an extra $130 to spend while you’re down here as a result, right? ;)

i couldn't agree more! seeing it on tv was amazing to me, but it's nothing in comparison of seeing it live! yeah, it is too bad i can't get mom and my sister to see it....but you're definately right! it just meant an extra $130 to spend on over stuff! :D

I want to see this really bad. But I cant justify spending 85 bucks for this. When I can see a broadway play for $50 or less.

Two things:

First, this is in it's own category. I'm not aware of any Broadway shows that have had the luxury of an entire building being erected from the ground up around the design of an individual show. La Nuba is not a show that would be able to tour because it would be impossible to erect this set in a tent or a traditional theater.... On another note, the music is all live, similar to a Broadway show and the cast is truly international (just about every act comes from a different country) This isn't like going to see Ringling. In I paid about the same price to see Rent as I did to see this show. I liked both and considered both well worth the money but I'll tell you, where the money went was a lot more obvious in this show. :)

Second, where did you get $85 from? It's not that expensive. :)

How do I get the La Nouba CD?

I'm going to see La Nouba near Thanksgiving. It was recommended that I get the CD before I go.

How do I get the CD? I assume that each version of Cirque du Soleil (Vegas, Orlando, etc.) has its own music, right?

Yes - each has their own music cd's and video's. All are readily available in the gift shop, even the other shows.

Enjoy it - the show is great!!

Have they released the Cd already? I wanted it when I saw it but they didn´t have it yet. If they do now, I want one too!!

I am going to see "Alegria", the touring company in Mexico City next month!! :sohappy:

I love the music from the Crique shows, and my parents and friends can't stand them! If you like soundtracks or foreign music, then you'll love their music. If you do, then I would suggest buying La Nouba or Alegria and then venture into some of their more interesting (but strange) soundtracks like "O" and Mystere. Get the CD before you go see the show, it will allow you to enjoy the show much better. I know they sell the CDs on their web site (cirquedusoleil.com), at their gift shops, at Virgin Megastores, and at Best Buy.
