I went and saw Cirque du Soleil's "Varekai" tonight. It was really good. It's my second favorite out of the four Cirque shows I've seen. Anyways, I liked the whole Icarus/fallen angel theme and acceptance of wherever destiny leads you. I love how these shows can either be chock full of story and symbolism if you wanna read into it, OR it can just be acrobats doing their thing in goofy outfits... and it works either way. Good stuff. Oh yea, and I was seated in the third row; close enough to really see their facial expressions and to hear the little kids counting in Chinese like, "one, two, three, GO!" It was hard to see some stuff going on cuz I couldn't see the whole stage at once though... kinda like sitting real close to the screen at a movie theater. Anyways, it was a a good experience overall
