I saw O on Thursday, July 21, 2005, the 10:30pm show and found the show to be fantastic. Seated in the 3rd row on the right side of the theater, I was a bit concerned when I noticed that my ticket said 'wet seat', however, I left the show dry. I guess that in some cases the seats at the front of the house could get splashed by the performers.
The show was very entertaining and the comments about it being little more than sychronized swimming, in my opinion, don't apply to O. I was able to enjoy the spectacular acts and follow the wonderful story with no problems.
I found the only drawback to be the people next to me who were enjoying their soft drinks and popcorn throughout the show. As has been the situation at other Las Vegas shows, many times people are carrying trays with drinks and snacks over your heads while getting to seats in the row behind you. I had hoped this wouldn't be the case at the Bellagio, but unfortunately it isn't. The old days of Las Vegas and dinner shows are missed in this case!
