Fans of Cirque du Soleil take pride in themselves for knowing each and every show – from its acrobatic numbers to the depth of its theatrical elements – inside and out, which is why, I would say, that we don’t pay too much attention to reviews published about an established show in newspapers.

And although you won’t find anything ground-breaking about the show within his review, it’s presented in one of the most unique ways I’ve seen – a blow-by-blow, twitter style.
