You know me and my buddies are all about the FREE. So you know we didn't pay for these tickets right. Yes sir, we saw an awesome show for free. Months and months ago on a cold winter day, a day where the snow was so bad they closed down banks, schools, and malls, my friends and I went to the Beacon theater to score a free PAIR of tickets to Cirque Du Soleil Banana Shpeel. They not only gave free tickets out but there was also a sneak peak of the actors rehearsing for the show. The beacon theater was a mad house. They had free sandwiches, banana cake pudding from Magnolia, sodas, juices, water and more. I stuffed my face with everything I could grab, found a seat, and enjoyed the pre-show. I had so much fun with my friends.
After weeks and weeks of waiting the day had finally come to see the show. On Thursday April 29th, at 8:00pm the show began. The show opened up with a stuttering buffoon which greeted the audience with the help of his fellow clown. Funny stuff. As the show went on we saw performance and acts that makes Cirque Du Soleil the well known show that it is. It wasn't like its usually show but was more vaudeville acts of comedy. With 3 memorable characters that popped in and out of scenes. From the old man with the walker, to the balding, stringy haired streaker, to the suave Latin man with his unforgettable walk and mime performance that kept us rolling at the edge of our seat, everyone got a little and a lot out of the show.
Sequined costumes, bright colors, and vibrant wigs adorned the stage. Tap dancing, ballet, swing dancing and more were just a few highlights of the evenings show. Kids were also in the audience but some of the jokes we for the 18+. But it probably went right over their tiny heads even though the adult laughter filled the theater. Claps, applause's, whistling, hooting, and hollering all were reactions we indulged in.
Its something you should definitely see with friends, family, or your significant other. Escape from reality and enter a world of laughter with Cirque Du Soleil Banana Shpeel. Let me know if you went and tell me what you think.
