OK folks - Going to Vegas as part of the hols this year and looking for recommendations for a show - (2 adults 2 teenagers). Was looking at Cirque de Soleil Ka but don't think she who must be obeyed would like it - Any ideas??

Cirque de soleil is a brilliant performance

went to see a cirque du soliel show earlier this year and wasnt expecting much, basically went cause the woman wanted to see it, but i have to admit it was fantastic. a must do in vegas
we seen 'mystere' at treasure island, but i hear alot of the other shows are equally as good

Teenagers (U 21s) will not be let near the "Gaming Areas" ............ basically 90% of the Casino. I think that most shows are in these areas ............ maybe there is a kids special show in the afternoon.
Take the bus trip to the Dam or do a desert hike instead imo.
Some great pools with waves etc there also for the kids.

Have a great time. Lucky you!

Went to the Viva Elvis one in the Aria last year. Would never have been a Elvis fan but I really enjoyed the show.

Cirque de Soleil Ka is great show

we went last year and didn't book anything in advance, just went to half price ticket kiosk in middle of strip and got tickets.. saves you a good few quid.. but obviously don't have tickets for every show...

Kids are allowed in the casinos, just not allowed on the 'carpeted' areas, but foot traffic and accession to shows is not a problem whatsoever. Enjoy.

I would recommend this guy http://shop.vegas.com/shows/showtimes2.jsp?show=211&cm_sp=Harrahs-_-Mac%20King-_-Afternoon%20Shows & not pricey like some of the other guys.

Was there at the beginning of April - saw David Coppefield and Cirque du Soleil Zumanity. Both were brilliant. Looked at Penn & Teller as well but it's a bit of a trek off strip.

David copperfield was fantastic in the MGM

I had the pleasure of seeing cirque du soleil 'O' at the bellagio. This one is all about water and has a specially constructed stage just for this production. Expensive but well worth it.

saw the lion king and phantom of the opera in vegas - both were great

would have loved to have seen gareth brooks
