O or Jersey Boys

I just booked tickets for Mystere and now I am looking to book one more show. My mother is leaving it up to me to decide. Has anyone seen both O and Jersey Boys? If so, which one would you recommend? I want to see both, but i don%26#39;t want to see 3 shows while we are there. Thanks.



O or Jersey Boys


Not sure about Jersey Boys, but I believe most Broadway shows in Vegas are slimmed down versions of their New York show (i.e., shorter running times, songs/scenes eliminated, etc.). Therefore, if you%26#39;re anywhere near NY and can get tickets, you may be better off seeing it there. I saw it in NY and it is fantastic.



O or Jersey Boys


They are both great shows. It comes down to what you want to see.




I would choose Jersey Boys. I have seen O and it was good but I didn%26#39;t like it as much as Mystere and Love. You are already seeing one CDS show- try something different. Jersey Boys is an excellent show.




Since you have tickets for Mystere I would pick Jersey Boys. I have seen O and Jersey Boys. I liked O but I loved Jersey Boys.




Jersey Boys. Cirque is great and Mystere is a great show but I%26#39;d mix it up and see Jersey Boys for a Broadway type show. I haven%26#39;t seen it on Broadway and I%26#39;m sure there%26#39;s bits that were excluded in the Vegas version, but the show still runs over 2 hours including the 8 minute intermission. Previous Vegas versions of Broadway shows were pared right down to 90 minutes so I get the feeling not too much was excluded. It%26#39;s a great show that anyone of any age can enjoy. I remember walking out of the theater and as it was packed and slow getting out, an older lady in front of us turned and asked how this younger gentleman (not in my group but was walking beside us) liked the show. She was thinking that maybe younger folks wouldn%26#39;t relate to this kind of music. The guy, who was probably in his 20%26#39;s responded, ';this is my 17th time seeing the show and I%26#39;m seeing it again next month.';




I saw Jersey Boys in New York, I am going again in Las Vegas. It is a must see show.




Thanks everyone. I am definitely leaning towards Jersey Boys now. I think my mother will enjoy it.




Talk about 2 very different experiences. I enjoyed both but Jersey Boys is my second favorite Vegas show (after Love) while O is about 5th or so. Jersey Boys left more of an impression on me and kept my attention. O lost me a few times as it got a little monotonous.




Definitely Jersey Boys - especially since you are already seeing one CDS show!




They are both great. Since O and Mystere are similar in several aspects, see Jersey Boys for a different experience. Enjoy!
