Okay...I have to admit...I wanted to say Jersey Boys at first...Many of my friends have seen Jersey Boys and rave about it, and recommend it to everyone possible.However, if you can see it back in NY for the same $ or less....seeing something else is a good idea. O is a good classy show...but NOT high energy...the music can be a bit tame and if you aren t night-people used to being up late...don t see the later show....my wife fell asleep. Mellow energy throughout large portions of the show and mellow classical music throughout...I had to wake her a few times so she didn t snore too loudly. Nothing against the show...it s pretty and the performances are amazing....but the other comment had it right...Le Reve is a good/better choice.I have seen O a couple times...I have seen Le Reve a couple times...I would be likely to see Le Reve again, I d only go see O again if I felt I HAD TO...like as a guest of a business acquaintance, etc. Le Reve is a higher energy show...the showroom is in-the-round ...you can t have a bad seat there...and the performances at equally amazing...and I do mean AMAZING....oh, and even though the theme is a bit of a nightmarish-weirdo dream/fantasy of a pregnant woman (a statement against too many pre-natal drugs maybe?)...it does have a story line...unlike O ...not much of a story to follow there!Oh, if you are into Asian/Martial Arts stuff....KA is pretty amazing too! (no water diving, but very amazng!)
Probably better for you to see O since this is the only place to see it. Jersey Boys is still on Broadway. Alternative things to see would be Ka at the MGM or Le Reve at the Wynn. Why come here to see a Broadway play when you live in NY. People who do not live close to NY usually go to see those. See something unique to Vegas when here. Just a suggestion.
Very different shows. Jersey Boys is the exact same show/play as in New York. O is the water form of Mystere the original cirque in Vegas. So since you are from NY, pick O.
Both are great shows but I will suggest seeing O if can afford the tickets. You can always see Jersey Boys on Broadway.http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/show.php
le reve is better than either.
