La Soiree V Empire - Two Carnival Shows One City


So I thought I would do a double show review as I saw two carnival/circus type shows in the one week.  One being La Soiree @ Sydney's most iconic building the Opera House:


And the other being a replacement out at Fox Studios for Cirque it's the New York based Empire:



So how do these two shows stand up against each other and in a tough climate for selling tickets, one needs to have an edge above the other.

So La Soiree was my Wednesday entertainment and with the Studio @ the Opera House turned into a carnival experience it was a bit of a hoot having everything from roller skating to a full bath on stage right before your eyes.  They were amazing moments and cringe worthy double jointed moments (if you've seen it you'll know what I mean) but overall this was a lot more PG rated than Empire which with full frontal nudity and non stop sexual chat it is definitely the show for a more mature audience.

La Soiree featured artists from all over the world (much like their recent fab dance success Blaze) whereas Empire was all out of the States (where not to brag but I am off to next Wednesday @ 9pm), this added to La Soiree with different acts adding different worldly elements.

They are hard to compare really at the end of the day but the old hoola hoops get rolled out at each and some strength work between male and female or male and male (in time for Mardi Gras) is a feature at each.

Overall I have to say I did enjoy La Soiree slightly more as this to me felt more polished and seamless with Empire feeling a little flat in moments and not seamless with it's running.

So here are my final marks:

La Soiree - 3.5 Stars
Empire - 3 Stars

Tomorrow a super chart with a brand new Number One and Monday the last Summer music list, the hottest and most fun  songs of the last three months.

Oh and finally, this was a Friday work thing, oh boy:



Not as sexy as when the Cronulla Sharks had a crack LOLZ:

Other cigarettes you need to be on the lookout for include piper e-cigarette and
echo-e-cigarette which also offer immense benefits.
Thus, for low line or high line conditions, the ballast light output remains unchanged.
It is unearthed in Karelia but it available in every part of the world

Another less extreme Nu-Rave look for the eyes is orange eyeshadow
and violet eyeliner. At birth, they are each the size of a pea, growing larger as we mature into young
adulthood. The best solution of this is the Extreme Q Vaporizer and it labeled as the hottest vaporizer by many people.
