One "gag" featured three male characters entering the stage holding flowers. One woman comes out, walks up to the first man, takes his flowers and walks out on his arm. Then two women enter and both of them approach the second man, accept his flowers and walk out on his arms. The last man stands alone the stage with his bouquet when a muscular shirtless hunk enters opposite. The first man quickly hides his bouquet behind his back. Big laughs. Hi-friggin-larious.

I'm pretty sure this was in the show because I remember a male character running away when another male character tried to accept his flowers. Maybe he wasn't shirtless in the performance that iSm and I saw last Saturday but I remember this 'gag'.

The storyline lacked direction,the visuals should have been much grander, and there should have been more variety in the acrobatics. Still, LOVE was a fun show (and I'm NOT a Beatles fan).

Zumanity and O are my 2 fav Cirque shows.
