Splash

The original Splash was famous for its loud rock and roll, high-energy staging, and nonstop specialty acts. But the performance was outshone by such shows as O or Mystere and trying to bring back the excitement.

As the result, the water tank that gave this show its name was removed, water was frozen, and ice skaters were added to the performance. Besides ice skaters, Splash presents sexy showgirls, dynamic dancers, jugglers, and motorcycle daredevils.

Some of the tricks are impressive, but the classical music is jarring when interspersed with Michael Jackson and Madonna tributes held from previous versions.
