Cirque Du Soleil - Vol. 3 - Region 2 DVD

It’s important too, because it allows the focus to be on the quite incredible Cirque Du Soleil. If you’re new to them, then they’re a circus company pretty much without parallel. Some of their feats are simply incredible to watch, and while their live shows are clearly the best way to enjoy their work, this DVD set is surely the next best thing. Four shows are included, and while it feels wrong to cite one over the others, the stunning "Alegria" is nonetheless an excellent starting point.

Topped with a terrific, thoughtful musical background, there’s an immense amount of entertainment on offer here from Cirque Du Soleil that’s light years away from the circuses that happily pitched up around the country over the past decades. That it offers much that all the family can appreciate only adds to the appeal. Heck, even the clowns are actually funny… --Jon Foster
