Cirque du Soleil: Love at the Mirage

It's not often that you get the chance to see an Emmy award winning actor, world class comic, bestselling author, Hollywood director, and platinum-selling recording artist perform all in one night in Las Vegas. This is just what you get when you see edgy comic Chris Rock perform his comic stand-up show live in Las Vegas. Born in the South but raised in Brooklyn, Chris Rock's observations on daily life in his working-class neighborhood would later become fodder for his stand-up routine and the television show that bears his name. In his late teenage years, Chris tried his hand at stand-up comedy, making his way through the New York comedy clubs and enjoying some success. When he was spotted on stage by Eddie Murphy in 1984, Chris's life changed forever. Eddie Murphy was so impressed by Chris's comedy routine that he cast Rock in his next movie, Beverly Hills Cop II. Chris didn't win any awards for his turn as a valet attendant, but he did manage to get his foot in Hollywood's door. This role directly led to Chris's roles on both Saturday Night Live and In Living Color. Chris Rock was soon able to establish his talent as an actor and screenwriter on the big screen in movies New Jack City and CB4. In 1996, he won a whopping three Emmy awards: two for his comedy special "Bring the Pain" and one for his writing on the show Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher. The Cirque Du Soleil is selling LOVE tickets for additional dates in 2008 for the Las Vegas Love Theatre, exclusively at The Mirage. LOVE combines the magic and spirit that the music of The Beatles has instilled in many people with the talent of the Cirque Du Soleil. Through a specially-designed stage that offers a panoramic view of performances, both high and low, the audience is given a one of a kind experience with the show. In addition to a unique stage design, LOVE allows Cirque du Soleil the chance to provide a unique mix of music for the Beatles LOVE. Created by Guy Laliberte, Dominic Champagne, and Giles Ste. Croix, LOVE is a blend of performances by 60 international Cirque Du Soleil cast members that combines acrobatics, extreme sports, and dance in a freestyle, flying, spinning, urban way that stays true to the history of The Beatles. LOVE offers an experience as enticing to the ears as it is to the eyes. Since 2006, the Cirque Du Soleil LOVE show has entranced guests through the sounds of classics like ‘I Want to Hold Your Hand,’ ‘Strawberry Fields Forever,’ ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,’ ‘Hey Jude,’ and more. Compiled from the master tapes at Abbey Road Studios (by The Beatles’ original producer George Martin and his son Giles), LOVE enables Cirque du Soleil to mix the originals into a compilation that stays true to The Beatles and allows viewers a glimpse into their world.
