This show had come highly recommended from several sources and I must say that we were disappointed. We purchased the pkg that included dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House which was definitely NOT worth $50/each. The setting and service was good and the main course was fine but it was just a piece of meat (1 steak and 1 chicken)... more

If you enjoy percussion, acrobatics, enchantment, and the history of Hawaii- this show is for you. It is magical-just like their promos. I went two years ago and will be going again in January. I recommend the producer's ticket which includes dinner (OK), an introduction to some of the instruments(nose harps etc.-very interesting), and a chance to stay after the... more

Our whole family went to this, which included my parents (in their 60's), my husband and I, and our young children, ages 8 and 6. It held all or our interest, even the kids. They sat still the whole show, absolutely mesmerized by it all. The performers are very talented, from the people on stage to the musicians, drum players,... more

We heard that this show was confusing and hard to understand. After going to the show, we could see how this could happen. If you read your program prior to the show, it helps. However, if you know some of the history surrounding the islands, you will understand it completely. We listened to our tour guides on all of our... more

Show is overpriced - if you pay full price. Best seen on a package deal or discounted, Show starts off slow, and gets better as show progresses. No understandable story line and for me (husband), I found it BORING. My wife enjoyed the show. The only thing I enjoyed was watching the live band and the guys working the percussion/sound... more

As a veteran attendee of Cirque du Soleil shows in Las Vegas, I was hesitant to go to 'Ulalena after reading the reviews. I'm really glad I decided to go. While it's not as high-tech as CdS, I thought the production values were just fine. I recommend reading the program booklet (it looks almost like the advertising flyer from the... more

The show itself was interesting and the music was stirring. The only downside was I wish knew more Hawaiian so I could understand more of the songs. My wife and I both found the 'plot' to not be too cohesive, but that's not really the point. The songs were excellent and the choreography was well done. Overall a great show. more

I have visited several Cirque shows and must say that 'Ulalena is, by far, fantastic. It dives into the Hawaiian culture through myths and legends and stirred up my imagination of what old Hawaii was. Superb performance and the musicians were a show in themselves. more

Ulalena was a mixture of dance, singing, visual arts, and even some comedy. There are several parts of the show that will blow your socks off, others are a little slow but overall, I felt it was worth the money and the time to see this show. more
