I just love Cirque du Soleil. I was so completely spellbound in the fantasy world of ZED that my eyes stopped blinking. I was captivated by the mysterious sounds of the music and felt very envious of those singers singing on such a grand stage setting like that. Also impressive to me was the total beauty of the trained human bodies! I really did see the true professionalism in ZED!
