I thought parking was free considering the price of the tickets. I wasn't too happy about it.

I've been to several Cique shows, this is not my favorite. It seems the seats were smaller than I remember. The guy to my left thought he could encroach on my space and my friend kept inching towards me because the guy next to him kept taking up space. It was very small.

Our seats were quite far back. We were third row from the back, which surprised me since I'm a Red Velvet member and I paid for Level 2 but I guess I wasn't sure what I was getting. Maybe I'll check with Ticketmaster first next time.

The performances were good.

While the individual acts and the presentation is spectacular, the show does not really deliver a story of "A fascinating journey into the evolution of mankind".

There were some amazing acts, costumes, and stage design, however the theme of "Evolution" was bizarrely executed. A man dressed as Darwin would appear occasionally throughout the evening accompanied by monkeys, people in Native American styled costumes, and Italian clowns riding a jet ski. I've been to several Cirque shows and while they are all surreal and at times downright weird, Totem just seemed like it missed the mark.
