Cirque du Soleil’s AVATAR

by / kihada Share this post /

If we were consultants to the two Canadian entertainment titans, Avatar director James Cameron (born Aug 16 1954 in Kapuskasing, Ontario) and Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté (born Sep 2, 1959 in Quebec City, Quebec), we’d suggest they create a resident Cirque show in Las Vegas based on Avatar.

If we were consultants to the two Canadian entertainment titans, Avatar director James Cameron (born Aug 16 1954 in Kapuskasing, Ontario) and Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté (born Sep 2, 1959 in Quebec City, Quebec), we’d suggest they create a resident Cirque show in Las Vegas based on Avatar.
 
Those who have seen Cirque’s resident Vegas show O at Bellagio and Franco Dragone’s Le Reve at Wynn  know that this combination would work. These two shows are creative mind-blowers, original and fantastic, memorable experiences unlike any other theatre, circus, concert or play event you’ve ever seen.
 
On the other hand, Cirque’s other resident Vegas shows – The Beatles Love at MGM Mirage and Viva ELVIS at Aria and even the rumored-to-be-in-the-works Michael Jackson show – do not have the innovation or inspiration Cirque is capable of. We don’t need another song-and-dance show.
 

Now that Laliberté has had his own Pandora experience, having just landed back on Earth from his $35 million working holiday to the International Space Station, we think he’d be perfectly poised to take this on. Wouldn’t you just love to step into a live 3D alien world of Pandora? We would.
