Cirque du Soleil's O Show at The Bellagio
Welcome to the world of "O," at the Bellagio. With a production that has never been attempted, let alone imagined, until now, this Vegas show is sure to amaze you with a combination of both aerial and aquatic performances. "O" is titled for the way in which eau (the French word for water) is pronounced. As Cirque’s ONLY aquatic show, "O" explores the essential and often unnoticed role that water plays in our lives and the elegance and infinity of water in its purest form.
First, you laugh at a silly spectacle of two clowns attempting to stay dry under an umbrella filled with holes as they weave their way through the audience before the show begins. Then you are immersed in the smell of spices as a man swings an incense container while several other peculiar looking characters scatter down the aisles through the seats toward the stage. Mystery, intrigue and anticipation hang in the air for the journey to begin.
Apart from the performers, the stage is equally amazing in its transformation from a 25-foot pool of water into a flat surface in a matter of seconds. Elements of fire, water and air are also explored as the set changes from an underwater spectacle to dry land where a tribal dancer whirls two flaming batons.
"O" is an aquatic tapestry composed of theatrical elements and surrealism. Having been viewed by over 2 million patrons and having been named as the Best Las Vegas Production Show for 2 years in a row, there is no reason to pass up this opportunity while in Vegas. In contrast to some other Cirque du Soleil shows, in which the focus is directed more towards individual characters, "O" is an engulfing show that will take place all around you leaving no room to direct your focus on any one element. Dive into "O!" This outstanding performance can be seen only in Las Vegas and only at the Bellagio.
