Yes 3 times!!! Fantastic, your jaw will be on the floor in amazement

Sounds fab!
I can't decide whether to book this one for myself and my 7 year old dd or to go for Lion King/Mary Poppins/Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!

Cirque du soleil is fabulous. Make sure your seats aren't very close to the stage though. I bought tickets for my mom and wanted to be really close, which was cool, but there is so much going on on the stage that I wished I was farther back to be able to see everything.

yes if you're too close you end up with a sore neck from looking up all the time at the high wire/trapeze stuff.

DBW - we saw Saltimbanco too - loved one of the early pieces with the man, woman and small boy - so beautiful and touching.....
