Cirque’s ‘Mystere’ vaults to 13,000th show at Treasure Island

Cirque executive Eric Grilly says, “‘Mystere’ has not missed a beat since it’s reopened” in June.

The first Cirque resident production in Vegas celebrates its 13,000th performance Saturday night. That figure marks the most shows ever for a Cirque production, by a long shot. It’s a height even a planche artist can’t reach. “O” at Bellagio is next at about 11,000, followed by “Ka” at 7,500 (hitting the mark this week), and the touring show “Allegria” with 7,252.

Not many remember that Las Vegas' first Cirque show was a sit-down of touring show Nouvelle Experience, in their ubiquitous blue and white tent behind the Mirage Nov. '92 - Nov. '93.

In my world, the standard by which all others must be judged is Mystere and Alegria. Congrats to them!

Having seen all three shows, plus the topless circus show, I think "O" is the best of them by far.
