How do the Cirque du Soleil shows in Las Vegas compare to their major world tours?
I saw Delirium a few years back in Nashville when it was touring in the states. It was magnificence. I have been planning a trip to Vegas in the near future, and I am trying to get the entertainment worked out. I am wondering how the Cirque du Soleil shows in Vegas compare to those like Delirium, Kooza, Alegría and Totem? Are they as theatrical and elaborate? Have you seen any of the Las Vegas performances? Did you like them or not?

Cirque Du Soleil's traveling shows are fantastic and professional, well-executed, and not on the same level as their Las Vegas shows.
Each Cirque show in Vegas takes place in a multi-million dollar theater built specifically for that presentation. These venues are generally larger than those available to the traveling troupes, and have to be seen to be believed. It's actually kind of hard to desribe what if feels like when acrobats are flying overhead, dancers are cavorting below, and the stage itself is rolling around and resolving into different levels on the fly. It adds a lot towards the sense of danger, when a performer is dancing backwards towards what used to be a level stage, but is now a 50-foot drop. It's mostly the Mystere stage I'm describing here. The O stage is a water tank with moving levels.
The Beatles Love is currently my favorite show in the city, and I'm not a huge Beatles fan. The things Cirque Du Soleil can do when they have $100 million dollars to build a theater are mind-blowing.
