Ugh, what a bizarre (and unfortunate) choice...

"O" is incredible!
"KA" was literally the worst thing I've ever seen. It managed to be both infuriating and boring. The acrobatics weren't all that impressive, the visuals weren't attractive, the "plot" was hard to follow, the theatre was hotter than hell, and the audience interaction (aka performers startling audience members) was annoying. Out of my party of 12, only one person liked it. I was actually actively trying to fall asleep but couldn't since it was so hot and loud.

Has anyone seen "Iris" in LA? Going to LA in December, have actually never seen a Cirque show, and I like the idea of the movie premise! Any opinions on it?

Iris is a newer show and in my opinion very well done.It takes you on a journey into the world of cinema. Its more of a traditional cirque show so i think you will like it. the trampoline on building act is so amazing.

You can't compare the touring shows to those that are performed under the big top.

If you are ever in Los Angles, RUN to see Iris. The Danny Elfman score is hauntingly beautiful and the visuals are amazing. I found it to be perfect, much more so then the countless Vegas ones I saw. In fact, I am seeing it a 2nd time this weekend. I haven't seen it since it first opened and I am very excited to revisit it.

O gives you a great experience too.
