"O" (theatre): Difference between revisions

Wildly ambitious and extravagant, the show opened to glowing reviews and caused a sensation in Vegas, setting a high bar for subsequent theatrical spectacles worldwide (including Cirque's own) to clear. Due to an arrangement with its host casino it has not been filmed, but the making-of documentary ''Flow'', available in Region 1 via Cirque's gift shops and online boutique, includes excerpts from it; the [[Widget Series]] ''Solstrom'' also featured some of its acts, characters, and performers.

 

* [[Audience Participation]]: Due to the show's unique staging, not much of it here -- well, not much that's real, anyway. {{spoiler|The man taken from the audience for the high dive is a plant; the two men who wind up dancing with the clowns are not.}}

* [[Busby Berkeley Number]]: The opening water ballet and the "Tzelma" transition are examples of the Esther Williams variant.
