Alegria (DVD, 2003)

After missing " Alegria " in Biloxi, I was so excited to find it on DVD. This was wonderful, and am so glad to have it in my collection. As with all "Cirque" performances, this is a one-of-a-kind experience, and would recommend it as a classic, to anyone who enjoys the performing arts!!

Great performance and entertainment. I initially saw just a few minutes of this DVD while sitting in a waiting room of an MRI & CT Scan Center. I immediately purchased a DVD of Alegria, via eBay, and loved it so much that I just recently ordered the Blu-Ray DVD of Cirque Du Soleil CORTEO. The DVD is a good entertainment media for any of my home visitors. Highly recommend it.

Perfect show !++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Quiet simply I'm a huge fan of Cirque du Soliel and Alegria is my favorite show. Pretty much it. Cirque du Soliel is one of those things you have to watch to understand and fall in love with =)

what can i say that hasn't been said --- absolutely wonderful !!! the body is amazing ! the talent, dedication, strength totally amazes me - i watch over and over - i will be in vegas in 2009 when ELVIS opens !!!

I decided to buy Alegria because I have been inspired to reach beyond my limits (mentally and physically) by most things Cirque du Soleil has created. I love the creativity and being able to see the capability that the human body possess when stretched to its limits. I also love that the music fits every scene: live, mysterious, exotic, mesmerizing...Perhaps I am biased, but I did not expect anything less that super!

I had been looking for this DVD for a long time. I was pleased to get it at a good price.It arived quickly and was of the highest quality. It was just what I wanted.

We actually went & saw Allegria which prompted me to buy this DVD. The version we saw was a bit different & I feel better than the version shown on this DVD. But this version is pretty amazing anyway, as all Cirque shows are.

For those not familiar, Cirque de Soleil is circus performers, sans animals, performing their craft to a story. There is music performed by their own orchestra, singing as well as death defying acts, acrobats, brilliant costumes, feats of strength & hysterical clowns. Many of the acts are European based & things you would not see in a normal circus. The story helps things move a long & there is always something going on, which is one of the few problems with seeing a live Cirque show is that it is difficult to keep your eyes on one thing. Seeing the show on DVD helps alleviate this problem as the cameras focus on the events individually so you miss nothing.

Allegria is fun & amazement for the whole family! A truly marvelous spectacle for young & old!

My boyfriend and I bought tickets to see Alegria in Boston, MA for our 3rd year anniversary. But as fate would have it, the trains were late and packed with people going to see the red sox.. so we missed the first half hour of the show. It was entertaining, although a different version then the one we saw and it was a fast delivery. I would buy from this seller again. Thank you!

I loved the LIVE Cirque de soleil performances so much.
This only way to relive the past ones is to view these
on dvd. I loved Alegria. The quality of the dvd is
excellent and the performance is awesome and surreal.
I decided I was darn tired of the commercials on tv
and have decided to only watch dvds. Good ones like this!

Fabulous entertainment. Breath-taking performances by highly skilled gymnasts. Music and highly diverse feats of seeming magic by the performers is spell-binding. The whole ensemble makes their skills seem easy to co-ordinate and actually do. Amazing and Fun for the whole family.

By far, this must be the best thing on the Planet. Outstanding performances, the music bewitchs'you! A must see!

I love that it was exactly how it was describe. It was advertised as new and in original sealed wrapping. I couldn't have gotten a better copy from a video store.

What I loved about this DVD is the music. I saw Alegria when it came to New York many years ago. The music was very memorable, but having it on the DVD will be more than just a memory. It will be accessible everytime I feel like listening to very passionate music of the Cirque Du Soleil. It is definitely much better seeing it in real life in order to appreciate its choreography. However, for those who have never seen it in person, you will get the gist of what it is all about and know that it is a great show. It is very enjoyable.
