| | |  | WORLD MUSIC | Home » » Cirque du Soleil - Lovesick | | | | | | | Description: | | Filmed over two years and set in Las Vegas during the creation of the cabaret-style production Zumanity - Another Side Of Cirque Du Soleil, Lovesick discloses the disturbing reality of the talented and entrancing artists who put their flesh and audacity centre stage to create this edgy new show. Sexy, poetic and intensely erotic, Lovesick slips inside a startling universe where men dress up as women, brides perform in staged orgies, and love affairs are exposed under the show's glaring spotlights. | | | Product Details: | | | Actors:

 LOVESICK is not suppposed to show ZUMANITYJul 25, 2006
By P. Fickett
It is amazing how many people get locked into a narrow view of what 'Cirque' is 'supposed' to be. Lovesick is a great documentary showing the trials and tribulations that take place before the whimsical world of Cirque becomes just that for the audience. I'm glad they chose not to show the actual performance. This DVD is not the show, and never should be classified as such. A must for anyone interested in the darker nature of pre-production.

LOVE SICKJul 13, 2009
By Lela M. Henderson
WOW!!!! Cirque du Soleil went adult only!! It took me on a journey I would have never gone alone! I sensed from the preview it was risqué, but...... Oh my, oh my! Now I must hide "Love Sick" in the family room. I can appreciate the courage of the directors, artist in bolding stepping out of the traditional box. Of course, Cirque du Soleil is not traditional in any sense. Your gifts of imagination and interpretation have always been amazing, beautiful, thrilling, motivational, funny and dramatic to name a few! I love you Cirque du Soleil and will always remain your fan!

Interesting life of CirqueMar 28, 2007
By Bruce G. Murray
I thoroughly enjoyed this backstage tour, so to speak, however it left me wanting to see more of the show. I guess they want you to buy tickets! There were too many repeat shots, however, the edting made for an intersting programme. If you saw Fire Within, the making of Varekai you;ll enjoy this.Cirque du Soleil - Fire Within / Varekai
 You have to go too far... to know what too far is.Feb 12, 2008
By Xtopher
It's true that Love is Sick. I bought this DVD knowing it was a documentary INSPIRED by Zumanity and not about the other Cirque DVD's. I thought it was brilliant in it's back stage real life drama from creation to it's performers. I liked knowing little things like the fact that Joey the Emcee was asked not to use the F-word so much yet it's used all the time by so many of the comedians at most adult shows in Vegas and in the real NYC. I also liked the fact that not everyone knew what to expect from the creators from the beginning. I'm glad it went behind the scenes of one of the most controversial Vegas shows to remind us it's hard f-in work.
The show now has changed from what you see in the film. Joey and a few others are no longer under contract now so it's premise has taken a much milder tone, but is still for adults. I mean there are no men kissing each other (too bad) so the gay theme is mild to the extent they do have a new drag Emcee and she is not as vibrant as Joey. There is t&a but it's without controversy.
So anyway, buy the F-in DVD! Meanwhile, the show F-in needs to take a few steps forward and push itself closer to the edge... again.

 DisappointingJun 11, 2006
By Gauntletwielder
"gauntletwielder"
I have all the Cirque du Soleil DVD's.
This is the first Cirque du Soleil DVD that disappointed me. I mailed a letter expressing my disappointment to Cirque du Soleil's headquarters in Montreal.
Wait for the Zumanity DVD to come out. This DVD chronicles only a handful of the performers. Joey the drag queen emcee from NYC, the British ballet dancer (she was too boring to remember her name), a strong man from Miami and two other lackluster women. The strongman's best attributes are his muscles and girlfriend.
As long as they are not hurting anyone, I do not care about the people behind the scenes.
Zumanity is a great, controversial show. This DVD does not do justice to Zumanity. It provides just a blink of an eye view of Zumanity through a keyhole.
The material on this DVD is more suited as "Bonus Features" on the real Zumanity DVD.
Cirque du Soleil never offered a DVD like this before. What inane logic made them release this DVD? With any luck, they will never release another DVD like this again.
