Review Body: It's a must see in Vietnam! I went to see the one on Ho Chi Minh and I don't I've seen a show with such a diversity and I'm a performer myself so that says a lot! It's impressive, emotional, has a lot of humour and is extremely well thought and executed. My only mistake was not spending the extra money to get a a ticket on the balcony in the middle which would have been ideal! Spend that extra pound it's largely worth it.

Review Body: Cute, Funny and Clever! The very talented entertaining cast bring a well thought out slick production to life in the simplest of forms with beautiful live music and singing. The AO Show (Bamboo Circus) at the Saigon Opera House was the highlight of Ho Chi Minh for us and a must see.

Review Body: This was a great show, well worth the money, very interactive, creative, and engaging. The young actors were very fit, highly skilled and you could tell that they enjoyed their performance. I have watched many live shows and this one was fabulous for the price. Highly recommend it.

Review Body: We went to the show on our last night in Vietnam and I’m really pleased we did. It’s a well-imagined and choreographed show and reminded me of Cirque De Soleil style performances, but rooted in Vietnamese culture. Definitely worth the money.
