Just back from Pittsburgh after seeing Cirque de Soleil do their Delerium show. So cool!
Big emphasis on the music- huge numbers sung by awesome singers with dozens of gymnasts leaping all around.
They used these see-through curtains as video projection screens to impose images over the performances. Insanely beautiful- and it effectively extended the stage hundreds of feet.
We sat through most of it with our jaws dropped round our ankles.
Afterwards, a little reality check- we got stuck in an infintely long line of cars trying to get out of downtown Pittsburgh. Which gave us plenty of time to talk about the show. "Remember that bit, when that guy did that thing, and then that other thing happened? Wow!".
(Oh- if you want a taste of the show, there's a great video preview on-line).
