Varekai: Cirque du Soleil - Book

Varekai: Cirque Du Soleil
Image from www.powells.com
Varekai is one of those shows that is money well worth spent. Watching it was such a delightful, edge of your seat experience that you never seem to want leave that wonderful seat under Le Grand Chapiteau.


Whether you've seen the show or not, you can take a little piece of Varekai with you home through Cirque du Soleil merchandise and, most delightfully, a book that captures those magical feats the acrobats do that leaves your mouth hanging open and wanting more long after the show had finished.

The photography in this book is by Veronique Vial, and they are superb! It captures the fun, drama, and action of the show.

Ahh, mon ami. Il et tres magnifique!

Like the show, this book is a book well worth splurging over, if this is a splurge at all. However, this book has is limits: it doesn't play live music, and the acrobats don't move. You're not moved to tears by these pictures, both in laughter and sadness. The show is definitely infinitely better.

Nevertheless, a
9/10
for me.

I saw Varekai last week. Fantastic! Love it. Especially the acrobats at the end of the show.

I saw Varekai 2 nights ago and super loved it! If you can't afford the $45 DVDs they sell, then the book is the next best thing. =)
