Cirque du Soleil - Lovesick DVD NEW

Amazon.com From the creators of the reality series Fire Within comes another look at the creation of a Cirque du Soleil production--in this case, the controversial and erotic Zumanity, which performs exclusively in Las Vegas. Lovesick follows four performers--drag MC Joey Arias (also seen in Mondo New York); an alarmingly muscular Cuban named Alex, who discovers his girlfriend is pregnant as he's in the midst of the show's development; British Laetitia, who keeps imagining her father's unhappy response to the show; and Canadian Jonel, who's soon to be married--if her fiance can make it across the border. As the documentary chronicles the bumpy and often abrasive process of Zumanity's creation, it delves into the strain the show puts on the performers' relationships, both because of the show's sexual content and the enormous commitment it requires. Viewers seeking titillation will probably be disappointed, as Lovesick only provides glimpses of Zumanity itself. But anyone interested in the interplay between on-stage and off in the lives of performers will find this documentary fascinating and wish it had only gone further into the dancers' psyches. --Bret Fetzer Product Description Dare to enter the sensual world of LOVESICK, an adult-themed, reality-based drama that explores the eccentric lives lead by Sin City's glaring spotlights.
