Cirque du Soleil – The Beatles LOVE

this is an awesome show, I’ve seen it 6 times already! I’ve seen other Cirque shows and this show stands alone by itself. Not a bad seat in the house! each time I’ve seen it we sat in different spots and each one had a different perspective, every time I saw it I picked up different things in the shows, very cool. They do change things a little from show to show but stays essentially same each time I saw it. I think that six times if enough for me, but this is a show not to miss, go see IT!

Out of all the Cirque shows I’ve seen, this one is my favorite. I’m also a little biased though since I love Beatles music, I’ve seen this show twice now, once I was seated way up high and the last time I saw it was in the 2^nd row. There is not a bad seat in the house, but I will never turn down a chance to be up closer, being in the first 2 rows was amazing! All the ushers were very polite, showed us to our seats and when the show started, I didn’t want it to end. I could watch this show over and over again and I would not get tired of it. I would definitely recommend this show for families, even families with small kids, anyone who enjoys Beatles music or anyone who may not even realize they are a fan of the Beatles. Without giving too much away, the music is great, the set up fits the theme and the production was well done all around. #LOVELOVE *Take a picture in front of the theater for a cool shot of the fab four and interchanging lights.

Now THIS is a show to see on the strip (screw you, David Copperfield) especially if you love the Beatles. Besides, have you ever wanted to know what it was like to have ADD? This show will help you with that. There is so much to look at on all different areas of the stage, so many colors and movements, it’s difficult to focus on anything in particular.
Please note, this is not your typical Cirque show. The stunts, acrobatics, aerials are minimal. The focus here is the music, the costumes, the set, and a whole lot of dancing. If you want to know what songs will be played, check out the Wiki on «Love, Beatles Album» for the full list in order (I think).
I was not impressed with any of the few stunts and aerials that were performed. They didn’t exactly «wow» me, but they did look like a blast to perform. The costumes are fun as heck and the set looks like the person had to go on an acid trip as a job requirement to come up with the things they did. In between some of the songs were some awkward voice recordings of the band, which really broke the flow of the show, if you ask me. Some didn’t make sense. Maybe that was the point.
Controversial: Yes, there was at least one or two characters at one point in the show dressed up as KKK members. Uncomfortable? Yes. But the decade these guys were writing music was jam-​packed with racial tension and social unrest. I think part of the show’s goal is to take a snapshot of that time period, show you what was going on, and in the drug-​inspired music and performance, kind of pervert the whole thing to be one freaky trip. There’s a point where a giant white tarp/​sheet is pulled over the audience. Dude, am I the only one who thought it alluded to a hotbox? I can’t be. Because that’s totally what it was, it was hilarious.
Overall, I’d recommend if you love the Beatles. If you don’t, it’s still worth going to if you get really discounted tickets. I used tix4tonight and got front row seats. I actually would not recommend sitting in the front because you don’t get a full view of the stage. Luckily, a majority of the performance done on one side of the stage is mirrored on the other, but for one or two sets, you can’t see everything. Honestly, sit somewhere in the middle or further back to get a great view. Even the last row of the place isn’t that far, so don’t rule it out if that’s the option you’re considering.

— The Beatles LOVE, was the first Cirque du Soleil show I have ever attended (back in 2009.) Having attended tons of shows, including more than 10 Cirque du Soleil performances, I have to say that «LOVE» is my least favorite one. It was convenient for us, since we were staying at the Mirage. Maybe if I was a fan of the Beatles I would have appreciated it more, Duh!
— There was less acrobatic moves, and more dancing.
— The longest 90 minutes, and the most wastful 90 $ of my Las Vegas trip.
— Still loved the visual effects.

I’ve seen a few Cirque du Soleil shows over the years and this one is now my favorite. From before you enter the show, the box office is surrounded by lights and a store that display Beatles gear.
For tickets, I would recommend getting the cheapest tickets. We did and I thought our view was very good. We were seated in the middle at the very top row. It’s a circular stage so as long as you are in the middle you will be fine. If you are located near the walkways of the stage, you will be blocked by the curtain at times. There are also discounts available; we got a discount for ordering online through our corporate discount website. Don’t forget to look for those discounts!
The show is 90 minutes long with no intermission. The acrobatics, (Beatles music), effects and acts are mesmerizing.
Beware that no photography or recording of any sort is allowed.

I’m a 24 year old from LA, and came to see the show yesterday with my 30 year old sister. We’re both huge Beatles fans and grew up listening to Blackbird.
When Blackbird came on, I closed my eyes. Why? Because I didn’t want this show’s creepy, racist, sexist undertones tainting my memory of a beautiful song. From KKK costumes to awkward orgies– I can’t even put to words how horrible this was. I feel really bad for the actors.
Don’t watch this. Whatever you do. I’m pretty sure the other reviews are A. Fake, or B. The negative reviews are taking down.
I truly hope I save you from this!

I was not a super Beatles fan until after seeing this production of Love. Just outstanding and I have been reading through the lower than 5 star reviews wondering how anybody regardless of taste (or lack of taste) could give this marvelous production anything but 5 stars.
Another great production from the world’s top live entertainment company. Cirque du Soleil, the food and shopping is the only reason to go to Vegas.

Such a great show. I have seen most of the Cirque du Soleil shows in Las Vegas, and many of the traveling chose in other cities around the world. This one is just pure nostalgia for all of the Beatles lovers out there. They definitely hit the feeling of all of the British movement during the 60s and the Beatles theme. All of the greatest songs that you know and remember paired with a great story and song and dance. It is in your traditional Cirque du Soleil performance but more of a musical and play put together. Highly recommended for couples or families.

I had great seats and really really enjoyed this performance. The music was fantastic, loved all the actually recordings of John and Paul talking and loved every portion of the whole performance… blew me away !
Big Beatles fan and I’m not sure how many songs they used, but it was outstanding ! There is no bad seat in this theatre, but I think the lower you can be seated the better, I sat in section 208 row L and it was great, but I would not sit in an aisle seat — more towards the middle and then you can see what’s happening on all four sections. But it was outstanding !!

Wow, what can I say without giving the show away?
I am aware of the Beatles and their contribution to pop culture, but was never a follower. The way they blend all generations through aerial acrobatics, costumes, props, and blend of musical hits is brilliant!
There’s no bad seat in the house, we sat in section 207. Though we missed out on some of the interaction between the stage actors and props, we had a nice view of the entire integration of acts.
Everyone should go see this CDS show! We’ve been to Zumanity and Ka, and this is by far our favorite!

For as much as I like the Beatles and shows, I sure put up a fuss about seeing The Beatles LOVE. That’s because even the lowest priced tickets were rather costly and because I couldn’t envision how phenomenal it was. This is one of the best shows of any kind I’ve seen in my life.
This was my first Cirque du Soleil experience and I’m reluctant to have another because this will be so hard to top. Be sure to get a Beatles-​titled drink on your way in.

3 stars
I like the Beatle theme & playlist for the whole show. the whole show was kind of telling a story, but there wasn’t a lot of interesting acts.

I’m really not much of a Beatles fan. Their music is great, but let’s just say that I prefer other genres ;). That being said… the show was absolutely FANTASTIC!
It was my first experience with Cirque Du Soleil, but later I’ve seen ‘O’ so I have something to compare it to. Here, the stage was situated in the middle of the podium and seats were all around it. Because of this, the visibility was great no matter where you sat. As far as I know other performances do not have such an advantage.
Of all the shows on the Strip. LOVE is probably the one with the least acrobatics. Still, there are a lot of aerials, climbing, trampolines and roller skating tricks :). What it has instead is great music and a great story with the historical and pop-​cultural background. The classic Beatles songs are arranged in a new way to match special effects and changing of the sets. Nearly every song is carefully created and separate peace of art with beautiful choreography and amazing performances, my favorite being Strawberry Fields Forever and Here Comes The Sun. And ‘the giant tent effect’ — wow! Definitely great to see!

Let me put this out there right now:
I’m not a Beatles fan. I don’t mind their music, but I don’t own a Beatles Album… in fact, I prefer covers of Beatles Songs.
That being said, my husband and I had the opportunity to go see «LOVE» this weekend… and I really enjoyed myself!
The theater is in the round, which is a first for me with Cirque Du Soleil. I’ve seen 4 of their other shows on the strip, and have never seen an «in the round» performance before… I thought it worked really well.
This show seemed, to me anyway, to be much more dancing, and less acrobatics. There were still plenty of acrobatic acts: aerial/​tissue, rope climbing, trampolines, and these AMAZING roller blade tricks! It seemed to be more focused on dancing to the music though, and I liked it.
I’m a huge Cirque du Soleil fan, so I knew that the quality of the performances would be second to none.
Hats off to the performers, you all did an incredible job!
The theater staff was great too. Everyone was very friendly, and cracked jokes with us.
My issue: the seats are not comfortable. They are SUPER close together and cramped. Other theaters chairs seem just a touch bigger, and not quite as cramped together.
That issue aside, I would highly recommend the show, Beatles fans or not. It was extremely well done, and I would LOVE to see it again.

Beatles, I’m there. Cirque du Soleil, I’m there.
I’ve been to 6 different shows over the years, and I’ve seen my last Cirque du Soleil show. Not that I didn’t like the music (although not live where others I’ve see are), and not that I didn’t appreciate the effort — great choreography, set design, and elaborate stunts and dancing. In fact, there were a few moments where I said «wow». But it wasn’t enough. Frankly, I was just underwhelmed.
I don’t get the clowning around mixed in with the serious. Enough.

This was the only show we went to while at Vegas, as I’m not the type to drop a ton of dough on shows like this.
We had the nose bleeds seats and paid a lot for them. Still, we were able to see everything quite well. The show is about 90 minutes and uses a ton of Beatles songs. It’s like any Cirque du Soleil, but with Beatles songs!
The show started off as a mess and was really chaotic, but kept getting better and better and I felt truly inspired by the time it was over. At first I was slapping myself thinking I had wasted a hundred bucks, but by the end it felt like it was truly worth it. I don’t want to give away much of the experience, but you really should check it out, especially if you’re a Beatles fan.

I’m glad I watched this. Love is very good. It is what you get when you combine the well known theatrical acrobatic of Cirque Du Soleil with pop culture that is Beatles music. The result? Mesmerizing performance that you see while tapping you feet in rhythm. It is entertaining. Especially with speakers in your own seat, making you feel engulfed in music. So this is how Beatles music sounds like with 21^st century speakers, and gosh I want that seat in my house!
I like the stage settings in the middle of the podium and screens all around. Because of this, there are no real bad seats in this show. I was at the front row of balcony seats, which is in the cheapest tickets category and I still feel as part of the performance. In fact, I think I could see the lighting affects better from up there.
Some comments though, I feel that Love doesn’t have as impressive acrobatic stunts as Ka and Mystere, and some scenes have so much things going on, it’s hard to grab the storyline. Despite of this, I enjoyed the whole show. The lighting effects are superb! I feel this is a must-​see Cirque Du Soleil, even if you are not The Beatles die-​hard fan. I rank it above Mystere and slightly below Ka, which is the best Cirque Du Soleil for me.
4.5 stars.

Love is my absolute favorite. I saw it in 2009 during my pre-​Yelping days and had the opportunity to see it again when my parents were in town. They asked which show to see and I had to choose this one. You get to sing along, dance in your seat and watch Cirque interpret the evolution of The Beatles and their songs.
We ordered our seats and found they didn’t offer a Las Vegas ‘locals’ discount any longer (sad face). However, we still got a deal and sat in section 205 — row N — Seats 12 – 15 and were happy with our selection. I would recommend sitting in a similar section and not too close to the stage. There is a lot going on at all times and being in the mid-​section allows for you to see all angles.
The costumes, the stage sets, the music, the performers are all awe inspiring! They blend acrobatics and choreography seamlessly in their 90 min performance. There is so much to look at and watch during the show. The music is pulsing through the speakers in your seats and you’re swept away into another place and time. It’s awesome. We all had a good time and I would highly recommend you Treat Yo’ Self to a little bit of Love.

LOVE is a lot like being at a concert, watching a band you enjoy, wondering what they’ll play next, hoping they’ll play your favorite song. As impressive as the set list is they just can’t get to everything, much like a real band. The songs that are here, however, are elevated in such a way that you will leave satisfied no matter what.
I’ll be honest, I’ve never been a big Beatles fan. I’m still not. But I thought this show was fantastic. I’ve only seen a few Cirque shows but this is definitely my favorite so far.
I was lucky enough to get a floor seat a few rows away from the stage so I felt totally immersed in the action, with performance seemingly taking place from all sides of me, especially overhead. The theater is set up such a way that I think you would have an awesome experience anywhere you sit, though. The stage is in the middle with the seats surrounding it like an arena.
Beatles music melds seamlessly with audio clips from the news and pop culture, sound effects, and minimal character lines.
Like all Cirque shows, the acrobatics and light spectacles are phenomenal. There are some really great set pieces, which I will not spoil, but let me tell you, you will be amazed. It’s the sort of show that, if you let it, will take you away to another place. The carefully placed music and lighting, along with the brilliant choreography paints a unique live action picture of the world according to the Beatles music. There seems to be an interesting story too if you pay attention, commenting on aspects of history, and pop culture from the time the music was produced.
Honestly, I’m surprised I have been able to describe this much to you. It’s a seriously triply show (in a good way), and words don’t come close to the stuff you’ll be treated to in this theater.

This show is AMAZING! I LOVE the Beatles, grew up on them… my folks had a lot of the albums. My husband was cracking me up reading me some of the bad show reviews written by people that don’t like the Beatles — why the hell would you come to this show if you don’t like the Beatles?!?
We came the day before to pick up our tickets, take pictures and shop in the gift store. And were extremely proud of our shrewd strategy since the night of the performance everything was a bit crowded. I had an awesome moment at the snack bar when dude asked me if I wanted a double wine in my commemorative Beatles plastic tumbler. Oh my, yes! Who can refuse a Big Gulp of wine? Not I.
The show blends music, Beatles conversations, acrobatics, images and theatrics into a riveting performance. It was especially sweet that there were two little kids sitting behind us so we got to hear all their awestruck comments and glee. And they had little English accents — so cute!
$ 170.50 got us really good seats with a great view of everything. But the show was definitely not even close to sold out, so they may want to consider lowering the prices a bit to pack the house?
Loved the show and I highly recommend it to anyone who is a Beatles fan!

Me encantó este show! podría seguir yendo
La música y como entrelazan las canciones con la historia que cuentan, además que la producción del cirque du soleil es para quedarte embobado todo el tiempo.
Cualquier ubicación en el teatro te da buena vista, yo lo ví desde la penúltima fila y se ve muy bien.
