RUN TO SEE IT BEFORE IT VANISHES!!! This is the second show I see at the Spiegel Tent, and quite an experience:acrobats,contortionists,daredevils,some comedy, raunchy MCs, some T & A. I preferred though the other show at SpiegelTent (LA VIE)And at ABSINTHE I really hated that JudyGarland/JanisJoplin mimic that brings down the level of the show to a gay bar lounge entertainment.
And by all means, do not have anything at the BeerGarden in front of the tent: fantastically overpriced drinks and awful food.
Loved it!
The show was hilarious. The acts werent all that great, but the host and hostess were amazing.... great environment. Highly recommend this for open minded people who are looking for something to do thats a lil different from the norm.
