Seduction under water and in the air – Le Reve

Wynn Las Vegas is the only place audiences will enjoy a show that is as seductive and entertaining as Le Reve – A Small Collection of Imperfect Dreams. Le Reve is one of the most artistically beautiful shows ever produced in Vegas, so much so that tickets are becoming increasingly difficult to buy. Le Reve started performing in 2005 and captivates audiences more so today than on opening night! The story behind the provocative moves is just as amazing – a story of good and evil.

The stage – on its own – is just as luring as the performance. It is circular shaped with multiple entrances for the performers to enter the stage. This type of design brings the performers and audience closer, in ways that can only be experienced if you are physically there. Because of the architecture, of the stage, you can sit anywhere in the audience and have an exceptional view.

The stage actually transforms in order to allow for stunning aerial and aquatic aerobics. The transformation allows performers to perform stunts at heights that are nearly unbelievable along with underwater. This transformation can also be seen from anywhere in the audience.

One ticket package, in particular, offers a bit of extra glamour for audiences – the VIP Indulgence Package. You will sit in typical VIP seating with extra lush seating and served champagne and chocolate covered strawberries. Additionally, you have access to a monitor that will allow you to see behind the scene activities. There are only 100 VIP Indulgence Packages offered per show – if this is the luxury you desire – you will need to look at purchasing your tickets in advance.

You do not have to have a VIP package to have a phenomenal view of the show. The seating is arranged in a circular shape, which completely surrounds the 1-million gallon aquatic stage. The maximum distance you will ever be, from the stage, is 30-40 feet.

The underwater synchronization and extremely risky spins and flips are beyond believable! These performers are not only talented, but have perfected their skill to be nothing but art. The heights at which they perform many of their stunts are higher than you would normally see, especially without some sort of protective harness of rope! The stunts are so “out-there”, in fact, there is no doubt you will hear a gasp or two – if not several.

Part of what makes these performers top notch is the fact that many of them were Olympic competitors at some point in their lives. These are the only types of performers who have the discipline and courage to perform in the way that Le Reve demands. The combination of this and the gorgeous costumes shows the human form in a natural state – beauty as it was originally designed. Producers and choreographers are continually trying to improve the performance; therefore, seeing the show twice may give you two different performances. This perfection is part of what makes Le Reve the most demanded performance in the state.

Franco Dragone is a legend due to many of his other productions; productions like “O” and “Mystere”. Le Reve is Dragone’s third production, and it has definitely made him the talk of the town. Since its debut in 2005, Le Reve is in constant demand, making tickets difficult to purchase. Le Reve is one of the most fascinating, seductive, beautiful performances in many, many years! If you can get your hands on tickets to this breath taking performance, do not pass them up!
