    Hello,

    I did some searching, but I couldn't seem to find any feed-back on this show. I'm pretty obsessed with acrobatics, martial arts, and anything Chinese-inspired so this show looks pretty amazing.

    Has anyone seen it? Is it worth going to?

    It seems I can get back Orchestra for $68 or Front Orchestra for $88 on showtickets.com - not sure if there's any better deals than that.

    Thanks!!!

    Ryan

    I would be curious about the answers to your questions as well but I am planning to see the show in August no matter what. On the Venetian website there's a short video of the show and it looks AMAZING!

    I thought the show was pretty good and entertaining, especially if you like acrobatics and martial arts.

    Saw it February and thought it was mediocre at best. Found the martial arts stuff to be long and boring.

    Saw it a long time ago and totally amazed it is still going!!!! Fun for kids but embarrassing for adults. There are some impressive scenery sets, but the acrobats are hindered by the panda outfits and the storyline is cringeworthy. The martial arts sequences are probably the main highlight but overall a huge disappointment!

    A great show to take your kids to; for adults...fairly entertaining, but there are a lot better shows in Vegas. The actors are energetic and the marital arts sequences (there are several) are action packed. They use a lot of visual lighting effects, actors come running down the aisles from the back of the theater and drop down from the ceiling. I was impressed with the costumes. If you like Chinese culture, you probably will like the show.

    Hmmm, thanks for all the input, guys!

    I think I'll opt for a Cirque show instead. :)
