 | Very disappointed. Minimal cirque content which is what I paid for. Felt very let down that you buy expensive tickets based on a tried and tested concept, that cirque is world famous for, and you get basic dancing. Even the dancers light suits were disappointing as they kept malfunctioning. Glad to see however that the show has repaid Jackson debts at the expense of cirque fans - Hazel | 24 Oct 12 |
| Very disappointed. I love cirque and have seen many of their shows, but this was poor. Cirque didn't put enough of them into the show, it was more a tribute show to mj that could have been done by any stage show. Was definetly an American show...sorry to say, but it should have stayed there. - Kelly | 24 Oct 12 |
| I would say that the sow is really for Machael Jacskon fans and those who loved his music. It was very emotional moment for me and I cried. I didn't care how bi the stage was or how good the actors were. Just the fact that so many people gathered to prove once again the huge effect Michael had left on all us, worth it!!! I would have been even happier to hear more of his hits but unfortunately 2 hrs were not enough. Only see it if you are a real fan from the bottom of your heart!! - Silviya Stefanova | 22 Oct 12 |
| Saw this at the O2 last night, have to say, it was rubbish!! Total waste of money and staged in a venue much too large for the production size. Very little circus acts within the performance and mediocre dancers at best. Wouldn't recommend o friends or family. - Lee | 18 Oct 12 |
| Have to agree with all the other negative comments. This show wans't made for an areana the size of the O2 so it got lost. Saw a lot of people leaving throughout the performance and loads before the last 10 minutes which really was the highlight. Glad it wasn't my first Cirque as it would have put me off seeing any ore. - Judith | 18 Oct 12 |
| Very disappointed. The show didn't flow together was confusing and lack lustre. Not worth the price of the tickets and the venue is far too big. - Cassie | 18 Oct 12 |
| The problem was the venue - too huge. the same show gained generally great reviews in the U.S. and Canada runs. Cirque should not take advantage of the extremely huge demand for tickets in exchange of compromising quality. They should also tap on the many, many Michael Jackson hits which can be theatrical and accompanied with acrobatic stunts. - Catherine | 17 Oct 12 |
| Probaly the worse show I have seen...If you have tickets try get a refund, if you havent got tickets you dont know how lucky you are... - Tim | 17 Oct 12 |
| utter rubbish dont waste your money - lee | 17 Oct 12 |
| It was ok,but not as good as I expected- not a lot of high wire acts- and the sparkly mime guy was annoying. The live band were really good, as was the pole dancer. Diversity were in the audience - but I doubt they saw anything that they needed to add to their repertoire. - bap | 16 Oct 12 |
| really disapointing very little circus skills and no wow factor, thank goodness for the pole dancer who was amazing - colley2720 | 16 Oct 12 |
| Terrible...Embrassing Show - James | 16 Oct 12 |
| This show is a MUST SEE for any Michael Jackson fan. The show is out of this world and the performers are incredibly talented. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and would definitely like to see it again. It is a great tribute to Michael and the song mixes are fantastic. - Charlotte | 13 Oct 12 |
| sorry but it was a bore from start to finish unless you like screeching,shouting through songs and alot of head banging - lap | 18 Dec 09 |
