I mean, it's been doing pretty decent business. Is it just tourists suckered into thinking it's a Cirque du Soleil show, or what?

My little sister saw it and loved it. She's not a tourist, but when it comes to theater she might as well be since this was the first show she ever saw that wasn't on a school trip. Some of my mom's friends were planning to see it because they thought it was a Cirque du Soleil show, but changed their minds when they found out it wasn't.

I was thinking the same thing, but the show seems to be pretty well done, like a big budget tribute band show.
Hey, didn't Cirque du Soleil do that with the Beatles (Love)?
