Is La Nouba a MUST-SEE?

[laguna]

We will be leaving in 3 weeks for the land/sea cruise to WDW. Would you recommend the La Nouba show at Downtown Disney as a must-see? Is it worth the $? We have been to WDW several times in the past but never a show of this kind. Thanks!!

We have seen it twice and I would go again if I had the chance. It is definitely a must-see and well worth the money.

[Mickey 101]

We've only gone one time ourselves, but felt it was definitely worth it!

[Piglet822]

If you have the opportunity I say go see it! I've seen it twice and am going for the 3rd time tonight.
My DBF has never been, it's his Valentine's Day present

It is a great show! I loved it!

Although I wouldn't call it a must see. But if you have been to WDW before and seen most of everything else you enjoy and you have the opportunity to see it, do it! I think most people will agree it is worth the money. A top notch performance!

[Polynesian Dweller]

The easy part to answer is to say that it is definitely worth the money. It is a spectacular show. But is it a must see? If you will take (or have taken) more than 1 trip to WDW then I'd say its a must see on one of the trips. You can see Cirque shows in other cities so this wouldn't be your only opportunity. So, I'd make sure I see the rest of Disney first.

This question comes up on the boards periodically, and I have never seen anything other than enthusiastic praise for the show.

I think Info Central should have the following entry about La Nouba:

La Nouba, Downtown Disney:
WORTH IT. No bad seats.



Seriously, though, it's a good show, and you'll be glad you went.

[comicguy]

awesome show, I am 100% certain that you would love it

[Piglet822]

DBF loved it!!!! And he is not easily impressed. I say go for it.
We saw the 9:00 showing with dinner beforehand at Wolfgang Puck Cafe and dessert afterwards at Ghirardelli's. A perfect evening

[RAIDER]

We went last year and it was brilliant ..Its certainly a spectacle and an experience you will never forget ... so yes

Another one which is very good but more music orientated and in many ways also surreal is the Blue Man Group if you have time

[GrmGrninGost]

Awesome show! Best I've seen anywhere! Go at least once! We won't go every trip, but you can bet we'll be back soon!

[pogo]

We've never seen it.

It was on our plan for our April trip which has been postponed until December.

See it if you get a chance.

We've only gone one time ourselves, but felt it was definitely worth it!

its one of my "must do every trip" items. i think its worth the $(i travel alone for vacation). based on this show i have attended other Cirque shows. but there are no intermissions(last time i went 06/06) & the show is about 1 hour 30 min.

[debandbub]

Another vote for YES. Incredible and also somewhat indescribable. We've been twice and will probably, no scratch that, DEFINITELY do it again. Yes, it can be pricey, but there really are no bad seats in the house, so save yourself a few bucks and at least go for the mid-priced seats. It's well worth the money. I have been called, um, "frugal", shall we say, and I have no hesitation about dropping the bucks for that.

[Rodders]

This is not a criticism of anyone but myself. I admire and respect the performers and producers of this show. I still hold it as an example of excellence even though I'm not sure it's for me.
I have seen lots of clips of Cirque on the TV and personally can't get into this type of entertainment. Maybe I'm just a misery but, is it so different in real life that I will enjoy it or am I a lost cause?

[Goes4FastPass]

Is LaNouba good? Yes.
Worth the price of admission? Yes.

A necessary part of a WDW vacation? No - depending on how long your visit will be and what else you have planned.

There are 3 gotta-do evenings at WDW:
- Wishes/Spectro Magic
- Illuminations
- Fantasmic
and if you're already buying park admissions - especially if you're 'hopping' you can fill a lot of WDW evenings between WDW parks, dinners and DTD & BW without the added expense of LaNouba.

In my book, it's definitely a "must see".

In the last five years, we've seen it 7 times. (That alone should tell you something!) And every time we see something we missed the last time!

As others have said, there are really no bad seats in the cozy theater. I personally prefer seats on the second tier center section, where you can clearly see ALL the action. The seats down close to the stage seem too low to me; you have to look slightly upward, and you can miss activity taking place at stage floor level.

We have been putting this off becuase of the cost but maybe this year we will try to make it sounds like lots of people are recommending it so we will have to try it

[dizzyworld]

go for it it really is a must see! it seems like alot of money but its worth every penny!
