I understand it's audience participation orientated, so do they come and pick you out?

I'd be terrified that I'd be picked on.

Hi,

I have been and it is brilliant.

On the show I went to they picked 2 people out of the audience - 1 male and 1 female - but the stuff they needed to to do was really easy.

It was a great show and I really recommend that you go!

There's a potential to be called out of the audience----considerably higher in Las Vegas if you're young, blonde, and thin---but a lot of what we saw was just waving banner-like cloth, movements up and down, etc.

The program shills in the pre-program were pathetic: "Are you excited yet?" I refrained from saying that I had left my favorite sex toy back in the room and hadn't brought it to the show....at $100 US/each, I don't need a workup; I need a good program!

But the group IS excellent---wonderful percussion---and you'll probably go nuts deciding whether to watch the main players, the support musicians (which is a treat all in itself!), or the light show.

If you've got the money and like "wild," go for it.

I thought it was a good show. I saw it in Vegas. Theres group participation involved. There's 2 people that go on stage, but they were both close to the front.
Oh and they will stop the show to make fun of you if your phone rings and / or you're late.
Saw it in Vegas, I wouldn't do it again though. I liked it, but $80 was steep for a show like that... Just my opinion.

My brother saw them in the Albany NY area and said they were great. If you like that style of performance then you should also check out "Beat the Donkey". They are a percussion/dance troop that performs all over the world and they are incredible. The group is led by Cyro Baptista and I'm sure you can find a website for them.

I think it's worth the risk of being picked out of the audience: I saw them do one song at a concert and they were amazing! Really original, incredible performers. I would really recommend them, I would love to see them again.

I saw it in Vegas with my son. I thought it was moderately interesting, at best. There are a few things they do that require audience participation, but, don't worry; they use obvious "plants" for any significant bits.

It is a really good show and well worth going to see.
Like mention if you sit in the front then you might get targeted saying that when I went there was a person taken from the back row to participate.

Go on go and see it I am sure you will like it.

Seen them on tv. Thought they were brilliant so I would imagine they would be even better in 'real life'. Audience participation is good.

flipping excellent! went there this year, not really audience participation maybe 1 or 2 people tops.
was really amusing, very bizarre, we were right at the front you have to wear macs and be warned you might get wet!!!

My sister-in-law went and she has recommended to me.
Her advice was not to be late otherwise you will be on spotlight for the rest of the show (quite embarrassing!).
And if you do not wish to be picked up then don't sit in front.

As soon as i get chance i do intend to go watch it.
