Absinthe Tickets

The Absinthe aka Green Fairy has persisted through the centuries, slinking in and out of the perception of whomsoever she chose to regale with her heady constituents. Materializing in Ancient Egypt, the Absinthe has seen and faced it all; elevated to the status of the nectar of the gods to being demonized in a storm of fire and brimstone in the 19th century. Its detractors claimed that Absinthe made one crazy, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy, rendering all those who indulge in it more beast than man. Well the Absinthe show that plays out six days a week at the Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino in the Sin City could very well claim all the accusatory attributes of its namesake liquor, and getting your hands on some Absinthe tickets will enable you to consume it in copious doses.

 
In the grand tradition of its eponymous age-old alcoholic counterpart, the Absinthe Las Vegas phenomenon was first harvested from the beer garden in ‘Caesars front yard,’ and then fermented in the adult entertainment themed Spiegelworld’s carnival, deriving its transformational energy from the Caesars Palace's  revelers that drop in to re-charge themselves in the Roman Plaza. Every evening, the distillation for the night's Absinthe offering is triggered by the fading light of the sun, and as twilight settles in, the impish and raucous spirits come out and mingle their aura with those of the eager onlookers.

 
Ready to be aged in the traditional intimate circular embrace of the dark-wood structure of the spiegeltent interspersed with stained glass windows, Absinthe awaits the aficionados of the hip and irreverent realm that is opened through the portal thus created. The exotic and sultry denizens of the spiegelworld pour through, inching to seduce their guests with their cabaret styled acrobatic shenanigans, which blended with the sexy music saturating the subdued ambience of the spiegeltent come off as a hybridization of Cirque du Soleil and the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

 
The ringmaster, calling himself The Gazillionaire, seems to materialize out of nowhere. Sporting a pencil thin moustache a la Dick Dastardly, ridiculously pointy gold shoes as well as one of the biggest codpieces that you have ever seen, he befittingly sets the whacky tone of the acts to follow. His inane exchanges with the crowd present are laced with sexual innuendoes that lathered with the utterances of his assistant, the potty-mouthed Penny, are leveled at all and sundry. The Gazillionaire then ups the comedic ante by involving members of the Absinthe audience into his risqué theatrics. Just when it seems that the rollicking humor might get out of hand, a skating couple enter the confined circular stage and go through their jaw dropping rotations a mere five feet within the first ring of the spectators.

 
A seductively attired lady bobbing a giant inflatable balloon gets the juices flowing of the straight male and lesbian female onlookers and then kicks them into overdrive. Taking off her top to reveal a set of nipple tassels, she proceeds to partially penetrate her ballooning companion, eventually going all the way inside. A pair of uniform shedding contortionists follow, whose gravity-defying feats are complimented with the tightrope trio that troop in next. Throughout the Absinthe show, various other astounding acts are thrown in for good measure. A chair balancing performance entails the stacking of some 8 chairs precariously on top of each other on their spindly legs and bare-chested acrobats amaze everybody with their hand balancing achievements as well as their ripped torsos.

 
The interior atmosphere of the spiegeltent evokes the feel of the old western saloons, complete with a bar and table seating a spitting distance from the compact stage as well as encircling it on two sides along the spiegeltent's walls. With all the action going down close enough to see the sweat glistening on the bodies of the agile and sensual performers, the Absinthe experience is a must-see on your next trip to the world's gambling capital, so book those Absinthe tickets for witnessing a cavorting menagerie of femme fatales and Adonis-like bucks.
