    When the situation is right...
    Though this is not the best of the cirque performances, it is worth watching when the conditions are right. I first saw this on an imax screen and it was fabulous, I went back to see it again! However, if you are going to watch a cirque show at home, this one is not the best. The acrobatic scenes are short and the narration scenes are long making for a awkward performance. If you do make it to the end though, you are rewarded with a meaningful message about life. If you have not seen any other cirque shows and happen to see this one first please know that they are not all like this, the average show is much heavier on the acrobatics, music and lighting and most shows do not have the forced narration and story line that this one features.
