When we were in Vegas, my daughter went to pick-up our tickets to Cirque de Soleil. She put the tickets on a master card of mine that she had a card for. She spent $276.00 for two tickets. I was livid! I'm not a fan of acrobatics, and would you believe that I fell asleep during the show?
I could have had two tickets to Aerosmith, who were playing the next night, for less. I was not a happy camper at all.....
Cirque tickets used to be in the $45 range back before they went all Vegas and international. We used to take the kids at least once a year and always loved it, but there's no way I'm going to spend $400 for 2 hours of entertainment (for 4 of us). IMO, nothing could be that thrilling.
Funny thing is, all the cheap seats were booked and the expensive ones were barely sold at all. They might want to rethink how they market themselves to their own country. This troupe started their careers right here. To heck with them now!
